Listings carried over from this site's earlier directory (imported May 9, 2026); yards Google lists as permanently closed are left out. How we check listings.
Scrapyards.io lists 65 scrap yards in Nebraska spread over 32 cities, and Omaha, Hastings, and Norfolk account for the largest share of them. What Nebraska yards see day to day reflects the local mix of agriculture, food processing, insurance, and rail logistics: building and plumbing copper, aluminum from vehicles and cans, and steel from construction and equipment. Accepted materials are shown where the yard has listed them: 8 Nebraska listings name lead, auto parts, electronics, or precious metals, and many name none, so call ahead before you load up. The prices on Scrapyards.io are daily US average estimates, not yard quotes; a Nebraska yard will quote its own price once it knows your grade, weight, and how clean the load is. Pick a city below to see the yards, hours, and directions, and bring a photo ID: scrap purchases are logged, and state law often requires identification for metal sales.
