About Scarpati's Recycling
Scrap sellers in and around Trenton, New Jersey can take material to Scarpati's Recycling, a scrap metal recycling business within Mercer County. The site works with walk-in sellers and small contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal across the surrounding county. The site's posted intake list is currently empty in our directory entry, and no specific materials are filed. The directory entry shows a phone line and an email contact are on file, and posted hours are available for visitors to check. Both data points reflect what the yard has filed about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for how to reach the site before any drive over with a load. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
