Frequently Asked Questions

Does RJ Industrial Recycling in Flint accept individual (retail) customers or is it commercial only?

RJ Industrial explicitly serves retail peddlers — individual customers bringing smaller scrap loads — as well as demolition contractors and industrial accounts. Walk-in during yard hours Monday–Friday 8:00 AM–4:30 PM.

Can I bring my old refrigerator or freezer to RJ Industrial Recycling?

Yes, but the appliance must come with a freon-removal certificate confirming refrigerants have been properly recovered. Refrigerants cannot be vented — uncertified appliances will not be accepted.

Does RJ Industrial sell used car parts?

No. RJ Industrial explicitly states it is not a salvage yard and does not keep or sell automobile parts. Vehicles are accepted for metal recycling only.
