About Ridge Recyclers
Ridge Recyclers works in the scrap metal recycling space out of Johnston, South Carolina. The site takes inbound material from local sellers and small contractors, and operates as a paid outlet for scrap metal across the surrounding county and nearby towns. Specific accepted-material categories are not posted in the directory for this site, leaving the inbound list open in the entry. Day-to-day hours are recorded, and a phone line and a website appear in the listing. These come straight from the yard's filing with the directory and represent the inbound-facing snapshot of how the site handles contact and posted hours, surfaced as a working baseline for planning a visit. 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.
