Everyday we speak to people that want to understand the scrap metal industry better. Some are completely new to selling scrap metal and some have some experience but are not that in tune with how the industry works. What is interesting is that everyone wants the same information about sourcing good quality metal or how to get the best prices, but no one thinks to ask one of the most important questions. That is What are the scrap metal laws within my region?. Depending on where you are in US the answer is different and sometimes can be surprising. New Hampshire does not have laws that are that strict.
We have been through the New Hampshire scrap metal legislation and summarized it to give you all the information that you need to be aware of before you head over to the scrap yard. It seems really obvious but don't forget to bring ID, you would be surprised at how many people are surprised that they need to bring ID to sell scrap metal. No scrap yard in New Hampshire will buy your scrap metal without ID. A Copy of your ID will be kept on record along with a description of your car, the license plate number and a description of the material. Law enforcement can tag and hold any material that a scrap yard receives, while it conducts an investigation.
Now that you have a good idea of what to expect when going to a scrap yard in New Hampshire we can have a look at some of the best scrap yards in the state. Starting with New Hampshire's largest city, Manchester, our research has shown that customers had the best experience with Manchester Recycling Corporation and S & S Metals Recycling.
