Scrapyards.io lists 106 scrap yards in Washington spread over 52 cities, and Tacoma, Vancouver, and Seattle account for the largest share of them. The state's economy of aerospace, technology, agriculture, and ports and shipping shapes what comes through the gate, from construction and demolition metal to industrial offcuts and end-of-life vehicles. Accepted materials are shown where the yard has listed them: 13 Washington listings name lead, auto parts, electronics, or precious metals, and many name none, so call ahead before you load up. The prices on Scrapyards.io are daily US average estimates, not yard quotes; a Washington yard will quote its own price once it knows your grade, weight, and how clean the load is. Pick a city below to see the yards, hours, and directions, and bring a photo ID: scrap purchases are logged, and state law often requires identification for metal sales.
