About Northside Scrap Metals Inc.
Northside Scrap Metals Inc. Runs a scrap metal recycling operation in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in Allegheny County. The site takes in scrap material from local sellers and contractors, providing a paid outlet for metal that would otherwise end up in landfill or sit in a garage. The yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. On the contact front, a phone line appears in the listing. Day-to-day hours are recorded, 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. Posted scrap prices move with the daily commodity market, so the intake quoted on a given day can differ from prices listed online or quoted earlier in the week. A short phone call before a drop-off pins down the day's number, and sellers can also use the same call to ask about minimum-load expectations, since some yards quote different rates depending on the inbound size.
