About Lonestar Metal
Lonestar Metal is a scrap metal recycling business that sets up shop in Houston, Texas. The site takes inbound scrap from walk-in sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit in garages or salvage piles. Information on which material types this site takes on a given day is not on file in the current directory snapshot. On the practical side, day-to-day hours are recorded, and a phone line is on file. The directory captures what the yard publishes about its day-to-day schedule and contact channels, both as filed by the operator and surfaced to sellers planning an inbound visit to the gate. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
