Scrap is basically the term used for old waste metal, which is mainly obtained from old vehicles, building supplies, etc. Scrap metal can mainly be disposed in wrecking yards, where they are processed for melting and converted into new products.
A common scrap yard, depending on where it is positioned, at times allows consumers to look through their lot and procure items prior to being sent to smelters. This process method is only allowed in small scrap yards and not in the ones which deal with huge quantities of scrap.
As compared to wreckers, scrap yards generally sell everything on the basis of their weight, rather than selling on per item basis. In case of an auto wrecker, the items would be sold on basis of what the item does, not considering that fact that how much it weighs.
