About J & D Recyclers
Working in Durham, North Carolina, J & D Recyclers is a scrap metal recycling site listed in our directory. Listings like this help sellers find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than ringing around half a dozen places to find one that takes their volume. Sellers can bring in copper for processing at the site, per the categories the yard filed with our directory. The list runs the typical inbound mix and serves as a working baseline when planning a load, though the printed categories are inevitably less granular than day-to-day reality. 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. 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.
