About Washington Refuse & Recycling
Washington Refuse & Recycling is a scrap metal recycling business that sets up shop in Lacey, Washington. 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. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. The directory entry shows a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing, and hours of operation aren't recorded. 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. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
