About Chicago Surplus & Recycling
Scrap intake in Trevor, Wisconsin runs through outfits like Chicago Surplus & Recycling, which handles scrap metal recycling work. The business takes in material from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid drop-off point for inbound scrap metal volume. The directory does not carry an accepted-materials list for this yard at present, and no intake set has been filed. On the directory side, a phone line is on file. Posted hours are available for visitors to check, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over with a load. Sorting at the gate moves faster when materials are pre-separated at home — ferrous in one bin, copper in another, aluminum kept clean. The yard can post the load through faster, and sellers tend to land a cleaner intake price on each category. Pre-sorted loads also avoid the wait that comes when staff have to break a mixed bin apart on site before grading and weighing the material.
