About Butternut Auto & Recycling
The scrap metal recycling site Butternut Auto & Recycling runs in Elyria, Ohio, taking inbound material from sellers and contractors. The business provides a paid drop-off point for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. The site's posted intake list is currently empty in our directory entry, and no specific materials are filed. On the directory side, a phone line and an email contact are on file. 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. Sellers running a series of small drop-offs over a few weeks may want to ask the yard about its routine handling for repeat inbound. Some sites coordinate around recurring volume in a way that smooths both pricing and gate timing on a routine basis.
