About This Location

CRC Scrap Metal Recycling LLC is a locally owned and operated scrap metal yard sitting at 12881 E. Wade Hampton Blvd. on the eastern edge of Duncan, SC, in Spartanburg County. In business since 2007, the facility runs a walk-in retail counter where members of the public can bring scrap and receive payment, alongside full industrial container services for machine shops, body shops, and manufacturing operations. CRC purchases a broad spectrum of metals — aluminum in nearly every form, copper, brass, stainless steel, lead, and ferrous scrap — and weighs ferrous loads on a 70-foot truck scale while non-ferrous material goes across three platform scales. The yard is open Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings, making it one of the most accessible paid scrap drop-off points in the Greenville–Spartanburg upstate corridor.
