About United Industries
United Industries, a scrap metal recycling business in Edison, New Jersey, takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors. The site provides a paid intake point for metal that would otherwise sit unused, and is one of the salvage options in the surrounding county. The site's posted intake list is currently empty in our directory entry, and no specific materials are filed. Public-facing details show that a phone line appears in the listing, and day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory. These two data points are what the yard has published through the directory about its day-to-day inbound flow, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. Posted scrap prices move with the daily commodity market, so the intake quoted on a given day can differ from prices listed online or quoted earlier in the week. A short phone call before a drop-off pins down the day's number, and sellers can also use the same call to ask about minimum-load expectations, since some yards quote different rates depending on the inbound size.
