Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring ID when dropping off scrap metal?

Yes. Colorado Industrial Recycling requires a government-issued photo ID when they issue payment for your materials. This is standard practice under Colorado law for scrap metal dealers.

Can I walk around the yard to sort or look for metal?

No. Foot traffic inside the yard is not permitted. Customers drive in with their load and staff handles or directs unloading. This is a safety policy, not a limitation on what you can sell.

Do you buy copper wire still in insulation?

Yes. The facility accepts #1 and #2 insulated copper wire and aluminum wire, and has an on-site wire processing division. The price paid depends on the wire grade and insulation type — call (719) 390-9500 for current rates.
