About Tex-Star Surplus
Sellers in Dallas, Texas can take scrap to Tex-Star Surplus, a demolition and salvage business within Dallas County. The site processes inbound material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, providing a paid intake channel for scrap metal across the surrounding county and nearby towns. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. Looking at posted details, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing and day-to-day hours are recorded. These come from the yard's own filing with the directory and represent the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit. On larger loads, calling ahead with approximate tonnage and material spec lets the yard quote a working per-ton price and book gate timing. The site can plan inbound capacity, and the contractor walks in with a number rather than waiting at the scale on the day of the drop-off and the drive over.
