About Royal Metal Recycling
The scrap metal recycling site Royal Metal Recycling runs in Royalton, Minnesota, taking inbound material from sellers and contractors. The business provides a paid drop-off point for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. The yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. On the operations side, operating hours are posted in the directory entry, while a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. These details come straight from what the yard filed with the directory and reflect the channels open to inbound sellers, which gives a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. Phone quotes give a working number, but the final intake price is what the yard pays at the gate after material is weighed and graded. A pre-visit call still gets sellers in the right ballpark and confirms the day's posted scrap rates. Posted online rates tend to be a guide to recent activity rather than a firm commitment for the day, and the gate price is the one that lands on the receipt.
