About RI Recycled Metals
The auto salvage and parts site RI Recycled Metals runs in Providence, Rhode Island, 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 yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. Public-facing details show that a phone line and an email contact are on file, and day-to-day hours are recorded. These two data points are what the yard has published through the directory about its day-to-day inbound flow, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
