Scrap yard: A recycling center that buys and sells scrap
metal. Scrap yards are effectively a scrap metal brokerage. Scrap yards
typically buy any kind of base metal like, iron, steel, stainless steel,
copper, aluminum, lead. Electronics, appliances, and metal vehicles are also
often bought at Scrap Yards. Recycling of the materials is done which are no
longer suitable for the original purpose. New products are made from the
recycled end product and the waste material which is leftover is used for
landfills.
