About This Location

Stropes Wrecking Yard is a scrap-metal and automobile salvage operation on Strope Road in Towanda, Pennsylvania. As a scrap buyer it takes in metal from individual sellers and small contractors and pays by weight at market rates, and as a salvage yard it keeps a stock of used auto parts pulled from junked vehicles. This is a paid scrap-buying and parts yard rather than a free municipal drop-off, so bring materials sorted and expect to be paid for metal rather than charged. Listed weekday hours run 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM; Saturday hours vary between sources, so call (570) 265-9862 before making a trip with a large load or a vehicle.
