About Ben Weitsman & Son Inc
The industrial steel and scrap business Ben Weitsman & Son Inc works out of Ithaca, New York within Tompkins County. The site takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options for salvage volume in the surrounding county. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. The directory entry shows a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing, and day-to-day hours are recorded. 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. Contractors with structural steel or larger industrial loads should phone the yard to confirm intake conditions and per-ton scrap pricing. The same call sorts a delivery slot at the gate and any equipment the site needs to handle the inbound, which keeps the drop-off on a known timeline rather than waiting at the scale on arrival.
