Colorado Springs is the second most populous city in Colorado with a population of a little more than 478,000 inhabitants. The city is the most extensive city in the state, and is located about 70 miles from Denver. Other cities close to it include Aurora to the north and Pueblo to the south.
The city’s history goes back to the early 1800s when the Ute, Arapaho, and Cheyenne inhabited the area. The Pike’s Peak Gold Rush contributed to its growth, which is one of the reasons scrap metal is such a huge business here.
Colorado Springs’ economy is diverse, with sectors such as tourism, tech, and military being some of the major industries in the city. Selling scrap metal is also possible in the area, thanks to the rich mining history, and manufacturing facilities - who are constantly looking for scrap materials most of the time.
We investigated the area, and scrap yards in the city are numerous. Most of them offer quality services, and they will purchase your scrap metal at a good price.
