Omaha is the largest city in Nebraska, with a population close to 500k residents. It lies on the eastern border of the state and Iowa, and is very close to Des Moines, Iowa. The city also lies a few miles on the north east of Lincoln.
Known as the ‘Gateway to the West,’ Omaha is known for its breweries. It’s also a good place to live, as it’s a top destination for young professionals, retirees, and families. The city also has several cultural restaurants, cools shops, and museums.
Omaha has a strong economy, and acts as an industrial and transportation hub. Construction and trade are major sectors; hence, it’s a good place to sell scrap metal.
People make good money on the side selling these materials since most metals sell at a good price. Omaha also has many scrap yards, located on different parts of the city. Most of the ones we found are reputable for their services and prices.
