About this center

M. Dunn Recycling has bought scrap on Welsh Road in the Holmesburg section of Northeast Philadelphia since 1932, just west of Frankford Avenue and close to Roosevelt Boulevard and I-95. J. Kairis Recycling owns the yard today. The yard buys nonferrous metal: number 1 and number 2 copper, red and yellow brass, bronze, aluminum cans and rims, stainless steel, nickel, monel, lead, lead batteries, radiators, electric motors and full computer towers. The test is a magnet; anything that sticks right away is not scrap the yard buys, though chrome-plated aluminum wheels are accepted at a lower price. Cast iron, glass, plastic bottles and catalytic converters are refused. Every seller shows a driver's license, state ID card or military ID. Commercial cleanouts and large jobs are welcome.
