About Buckeye Recycling
Buckeye Recycling works in the scrap metal recycling space out of Columbus, Ohio. The site takes inbound material from local sellers and small contractors, and operates as a paid outlet for scrap metal across the surrounding county and nearby towns. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. Per the directory, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
