[ 06 ] INSIDE THE YARD

Where your scrap actually goes.

Our crew, our trucks, our sorting bins. Pull through Gate 1, weigh in at the office, then drive straight to the bin that matches your load.

Steel · Copper · Aluminum · Wheels · Batteries

Pre-labeled bins means you don't have to guess where it goes — and you don't get short-counted because of a mixed load.

Whole-vehicle towing, anywhere in the county

Title, key, signature — we handle the paperwork in the driveway and hand you the cash before we roll out.

[ 07 ] ABOUT

Family-run since 1979.

One family, one yard, four-and-a-half decades. We’ve watched copper hit $0.62, then $4.80, then somewhere in between — and we’ve paid honest weight for every pound of it.

Owosso Salvage is the largest independent ferrous and non-ferrous scrap facility in Shiawassee County, processing tens of thousands of tons annually for homeowners, contractors, demo crews, and industrial accounts. We’re ISRI-affiliated, our scales are state-certified, and we’ve been at the same Chipman Street yard since 1979.

We don’t haggle. We don’t downgrade. We don’t keep you waiting. The number on the scale is the number on the ticket, and the ticket cashes the moment you sign it.
