About Derrick Co Inc
Working out of Cincinnati, Ohio, Derrick Co Inc handles industrial steel and scrap 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. Posted material types include aluminum, brass, copper, and lead. The list reflects what the yard told the directory it accepts, which serves as a working baseline for what fits the standard inbound at the gate, and gives sellers something concrete to plan a load around at home. On the directory side, a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving 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.
