366 Processing Services, Inc.
5115 E. Hwy. 80
(606) 274-3955
Mon-Fri 8:00 AM-5:00 PM EST
366 Processing Services buys catalytic converters nationwide from licensed businesses only, including scrap yards, core buyers, auto recyclers, and muffler and repair shops. Each lot is de-canned, milled into one blend, sampled, and tested by XRF and ICP at the plant at 5115 E. Hwy. 80 in Somerset, then refined through partner refineries, and the supplier is paid on recovered platinum, palladium, and rhodium rather than a visual grade. Suppliers ship to Somerset or schedule a regional pickup, and large suppliers that want to sell metal instead of converters use toll processing. New customers pass KYC and AML onboarding first. The 366 Search app gives them live metal pricing and a converter database searchable by part number or photo.
