About Upstate Shredding
Working out of Owego, New York, Upstate Shredding handles scrap metal recycling for sellers across the surrounding county. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers who need a paid outlet for metal. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. On the contact and schedule side, a phone line, a website, and an email contact are on file and day-to-day hours are recorded. The directory captures these two data points from the yard's own filing as part of its public-facing snapshot, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning an inbound 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.
