About this center

Okolona Metal & Iron has bought scrap in Napoleon, Ohio, since 2000, working both sides of the scale: ferrous metal such as heavy melt steel, plate and structural, cast iron, shred, and whole autos, and non-ferrous metal including copper, brass, aluminum, stainless, and lead. Catalytic converters, car batteries, electric motors, and insulated wire all have their own price lines, with converters limited to two per customer each day. Sellers show a valid driver license. A vehicle sale needs a notarized title in the name of the person who brings the car. The yard turns away liquid hazardous waste, and it rents 10, 20, 30, and 40 yard roll-off containers to homes, businesses, and industrial customers across Northwest Ohio, with pickup of full boxes on request.

This place is the most honest scrap yard there can be I go about once a year sometimes twice but I just took a load in and the guy came running to me when I was about to pull away and leave and said hold on handed me and envelope and said this has been here for about a year. I guess I got underpaid the last time I went in not a lot but a few dollars. An honest mistake and owning it without me realizing at all.

These folks out here are some of the best. The man that runs the magnet came to help unload my trailer. Female and backing trailers gets some eye rolls but he talked me through it and we got it done. So thankful for his patience and his help!

What FMCSA vehicle inspection history matches this registered carrier?

FMCSA’s vehicle inspection file retrieved October 31, 2026 contains 1 reviewed records matching USDOT 3084101 and the current registered legal/DBA name for OKOLONA METAL & IRON LLC, dated 2024-07-11 through 2024-07-11. 0 matched reports have a positive VIOL_TOTAL field and 0 have a positive OOS_TOTAL field. Across these distinct reports, the source VIOL_TOTAL values sum to 0 and OOS_TOTAL values sum to 0; these are reported inspection-level counts. This is the observed subset of a three-year file, not a lifetime total. The history concerns the registered carrier’s vehicles/operations, not inspections of this recycling facility. An out-of-service violation at an inspection does not establish a current carrier-wide shutdown or present safety status.
