Bee Green Recycling
3609 Nine Mile Rd
Bee Green Recycling buys scrap metal inside an enclosed drive-through building at 3609 Nine Mile Road in Richmond, so unloading and payment happen out of the weather. Family owned since 2015, it calls itself Central Virginia's only enclosed scrap facility. A visit starts on the scale: the car is weighed with the load, staff help sort the metal, and a second weigh-out sets the payout. Most sellers scan the receipt at the on-site ATM and leave with cash. The buy list runs from bare bright copper, brass, aluminum, and stainless steel to cast iron, catalytic converters, car motors, alternators, starters, transmissions, radiators, appliances, transformers, electric motors, and computer towers. Lead, radioactive metals, items holding liquids or chemicals, and complete vehicles are refused. The yard records ID and license plate on every check-in.
