About Absco Inc
Inbound scrap in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania goes through sites like Absco Inc, which handles scrap metal recycling work. The business takes material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, providing a paid intake channel for scrap metal volume across the surrounding county. The site's accepted-material list is not posted in the directory entry for this yard at the time of the current snapshot. On the contact front, a phone line appears in the listing. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over. 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.
