About Ben Weistman Recycling

Ben Weistman Recycling runs a scrap metal recycling operation in Ithaca, New York within Tompkins County. The site takes in scrap material from local sellers and contractors, providing a paid outlet for metal that would otherwise end up in landfill or sit in a garage. Public records do not list which material types this site accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. On a practical level, operating hours are posted in the directory entry and a phone line appears in the listing. The directory carries what the yard chose to publish about its day-to-day inbound flow and contact channels, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Phone quotes give a working number, but the final intake price is what the yard pays at the gate after material is weighed and graded. A pre-visit call still gets sellers in the right ballpark and confirms the day's posted scrap rates. Posted online rates tend to be a guide to recent activity rather than a firm commitment for the day, and the gate price is the one that lands on the receipt.
