RAW Auto & Metal
3300 Liverpool Road
219-962-5000
RAW Auto & Metal is a family-owned scrap and junk car yard on Liverpool Road in Lake Station, recycling in Northwest Indiana for over 30 years. It buys most metals, appliances, car parts, fencing, and junk cars, trailers, and ATVs from businesses and individuals. A sign inside the front gate sends drivers one of two ways. Scrap metal sellers stay in the vehicle, pull left onto the scale, weigh in, unload at the rear of the building, and weigh out again. Everything else goes right toward the garage past the main office, where the scale operator identifies the material and weighs it out. The office inside the main garage pays out. Vehicles need a title or proof of ownership, and pickup quotes are available for junk cars.

Scrap Yards in Lake Station: FAQ
Do scrap yards in Lake Station, IN pay cash?
Many states restrict cash payment for scrap metal, especially copper and catalytic converters, and require a photo ID and a waiting period. Expect a check or electronic payment at some yards. Call ahead to confirm how a yard pays.
What do I need to bring to sell scrap metal?
Bring a valid government photo ID. Many states also require a vehicle plate number and, for some items, proof of ownership. Separate metals by type before you go, since mixed loads are paid at the lowest grade.
How are scrap prices set in Lake Station, IN?
Yards price scrap by the pound or ton, based on commodity markets such as COMEX copper, minus their processing costs. Prices change daily, so call two or three yards before selling a large load.
