About Acme Iron & Metal
Acme Iron & Metal, an industrial steel and scrap business in Roswell, 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. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. Practical details: operating hours are posted in the directory entry, and a phone line and an email contact are on file. Both data points are pulled from the yard's filing with the directory and reflect the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Some yards require ID at intake, and a few keep separate records for ferrous versus non-ferrous drop-offs. Sellers planning a first visit should confirm what the gate needs on a phone call so the paperwork side is sorted before driving over with a load.
