About Franklin Iron & Metal
Scrap intake in Dayton, Ohio runs through outfits like Franklin Iron & Metal, which handles scrap metal recycling work. The business takes in material from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid drop-off point for inbound scrap metal volume. There is no accepted-materials list on file for this site in our directory at present, and the field remains open. Practical details: day-to-day hours are recorded, and a phone line and a website are on file. Both data points are pulled from the yard's filing with the directory and reflect the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. 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.
