About Bernath Recycling
Bernath Recycling runs in Fargo, North Dakota, taking on scrap metal recycling work for individual sellers and contractors. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for metal across the surrounding county. Inbound category data is not recorded for the team in the current directory listing, with the entry left open. Per public records, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. The directory carries these as the yard's own self-reported snapshot of its inbound schedule and contact mix, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
