Grand Prairie scrap leans industrial, with houses in between

Grand Prairie’s industrial stretches, including the shops that grew up with the auto plants, still shed steel, aluminum wheels, and mixed plant scrap when a bay gets cleared. Wheels and extrusions should not be tossed in with dirty iron if you care about the ticket.

Residential streets add hail-beat cars and remodel copper from mid-century houses. Lone Star–area event builds are a third pattern: temporary steel and aluminum that has to leave on a date. Name which of the three you actually have.
