About This Location

Brown's Aluminum & Catalytic Converter Scrap Yard (now doing business as Brown's Recycling) sits on AL-36 in Somerville, Alabama. It is a cash scrap-metal buyer that takes all types of metal, specializes in aluminum and catalytic converters, and also buys junk cars and auto parts. This is a commercial buyer rather than a curbside or household drop-off, so it is the place to sell metal, not to drop mixed recyclables. The yard is open weekdays and closed weekends; call (256) 778-8785 for a quote.
