About Hobbs Iron & Metal
Hobbs Iron & Metal, a scrap metal recycling business in Hobbs, New Mexico, 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. Posted intake categories are currently blank on this listing in our directory, with no specific materials recorded. Per the directory, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line, a website, and an email contact are on file. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
