About Elizabeth River Recycling

Inbound scrap in Chesapeake, Virginia goes through sites like Elizabeth River Recycling, which handles scrap metal recycling work. The business takes material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, providing a paid intake channel for scrap metal volume across the surrounding county. There is no accepted-materials list on file for this site in our directory at present, and the field remains open. Practical details: day-to-day hours are recorded, and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points are pulled from the yard's filing with the directory and reflect the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. 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.
