Billings is the largest city in the State Montana, located on the southern parts of the state, around Yellowstone River. It has a population of around 117k people, and acts as the seat of Yellowstone County.
The city is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States recently. It offers safe and friendly environment for families, and numerous recreational facilities such as the Yellowstone National Park and the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument.
Billings is also a regional retail and distribution hub. It is also a center of mining, since oil here is in large quantities. Therefore, this is a good place to sell scrap metal, and at a good price.
We did an investigation to see if we could find scrap yards; and yes, the city has many scrap yards. You’ll find most of them on the northeastern side of the city, and will offer to buy your materials at very good prices.
Some of the scrap metal dealers we can recommend are below.
The northeastern part of Billings has numerous scrap yards to take your materials to, but the ones we highly recommend are Big Sky Steel & Salvage on 1430 Lockwood Road, Schnitzer Steel on 1100 6th Avenue, Louie & Dean’s Montana Truck & Car Salvage on 516 Scott Street, and Pacific Recycling on 777 4th Avenue North.
If you have an electronic that you need to recycle, you can take it to Yellowstone E-Waste Solutions on 419 North 15th Street. Those on the eastern side of Billings can take their scrap metal to Pacific Steel on 145 Sugar Avenue.
Cash for gold places we recommend are Grizzly Gold and Silver on 2450 King Avenue West, Montana Bullion & Coin on 1111 Main Street #13, Ardie’s Coins on 1944 Grand Avenue, and Greenleaf’s Jewelry on 312 8th Street West.
