About Junk Overload
Junk Overload is an industrial steel and scrap site working out of Minneapolis, Minnesota in Hennepin County. The business takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county and nearby towns. Sellers will find copper and precious metals on the posted list of accepted categories. The yard self-reported these to the directory, which makes the list a working baseline for the standard intake mix on a given inbound day at the gate. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry. A phone line is on file, which together capture what the yard has filed with the directory about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for planning a visit before any drive over to the gate. Demolition crews and contractors with structural steel should phone the yard to schedule drop-off and confirm the day's per-ton scrap rate. Walking through approximate tonnage and material spec on the call books gate timing and a quoted intake price together, which keeps the drop-off on a known timeline at the gate.
