About United Scrap Iron & Metal Co

United Scrap Iron & Metal Co sits in Paterson, New Jersey, with a focus on scrap and salvage work. The site takes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit unused or head to landfill. The team accepts aluminum, brass, copper, and lead on the inbound side, per directory records. The categories listed run the standard intake mix the yard reported as part of its public-facing snapshot, which gives a working sense of how a load might fit before any drive over. On the operations side, posted hours are available for visitors to check, while a phone line is on file. 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. Auto sellers should expect the site to ask about drained fluids before intake — oil, coolant, fuel — and about whether batteries and catalytic converters need to come out separately. A phone call to the yard confirms what prep is needed and whether the operator handles that work in-house or expects the seller to arrive with the vehicle prepped.
