If I wanted to scrap the shell of a car, it has no motor no transmission no tires or anything just the shell and some steel scrap metal inside, would I just put it down in the parking lot and follow the normal after hours protocol??

Very amicable & helpful staff, very fair prices paid for ferrous & nonferrous metals. Has excellent hours so you can always find time to recycle your metals even if you work 40 hours / week. Never had any problems, always pay me the correct amount on each metal type I bring in. 5 out of 5 stars! Would recommend & I'll be going back myself when I have more to recycle (I go about 4 - 6 times per year or about once every 90 days). Keep up the good work & we'll see you next trip, probably in the beginning of December. Sincerely, Jeff K.

I was helped from my car with my copper. They loaded for me and even separated the loads for me for maximum value.
