About Eight Acres Recycling
Scrap sellers in and around Prosperity, South Carolina can take material to Eight Acres Recycling, a demolition and salvage business within Newberry County. The site works with walk-in sellers and small contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal across the surrounding county. The yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. The directory entry shows a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing, and posted hours are available for visitors to check. Both data points reflect what the yard has filed about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for how to reach the site before any drive over with a load. Some yards require ID at intake, and a few keep separate records for ferrous versus non-ferrous drop-offs. Sellers planning a first visit should confirm what the gate needs on a phone call so the paperwork side is sorted before driving over with a load.
