Statesville – Monroe Street Yard
In January 2013, L. Gordon Iron & Metal opened an additional location within a mile of its existing Salisbury Rd. location, in order to more efficiently handle smaller amounts of non-ferrous materials (copper, aluminum, stainless, etc.) and aluminum beverage cans. The opening of this new satellite location has significantly reduced customer wait times prior to being unloaded.

What Our Clients Say
I was given a tour of the facility without even asking.
The scope of what they accomplish at this facility is quite magnificent. Here is a company that is cordial and efficient, while putting metal back to use that could easily be forgotten. I’d work with them any day!
S. Sigler
Very helpful staff.
Kind, engaging and personal. I know of others who have dealt with them as well, for years, and they have expressed a stellar reputation.
T. Colton
Valued customer of ours.
Louis, Scott and company were wonderful to deal with and I would recommend anyone in the area to work with them.
L. Jurek
L. Gordon Iron and Metal is the best.
There is no one better in honesty, integrity, and pricing. I consider the Gordons my best friend in the scrap industry and a partner in my business.
