If a scrap yard donated metal they paid for they’d be losing money, right? So no donations, sorry, lol.

Gateway Materials LLC.

I only work Tue/Thu/Sat now cuz of school, but the owner, Rick Sr, or his son Richard should be able to help you out if you decide to take a look.

You buy by weight, depending on material type.

Right on Union Rd near Como Park BLVD

You’re open on sat too? ooohh.  
How are the prices? Like… honestly, compared to other places.

If it’s $1 per pound for SS… That sounds pretty decent.  
Considering some places are $1/lb for A-36.

Its really up to my boss as to what you pay and if he likes you… LOL.

Regular 304 SS will cost roughly $1/lb, but there are other types too, 316 will cost around $2.50/lb. I think scraping it pays about $.50 a lb when it comes to stainless. But we’ve got all sorts of shit, SS steel, aluminums, etc./
