Salem Iron & Metal
History...
Salem Iron & Metal opened its doors on July 1, 2013, but its story goes back much farther than that. The company was originally founded in 1968 as Hedge Metal Company. Roy Hedge Jr. started the business and his grandson, Daryl Beckner worked side by side with him. They served the area's metal recycling needs together until Roy Hedge passed away suddenly in June, 1980. At that time the business ownership was passed to his wife, Nelda Hedge with Daryl managing the day to day operations. The company continued to operate under the name Hedge Metal Company until 2013, when Mrs. Hedge passed away. Although the name was changed, the principles the company was founded on did not. We look forward to seeing returning customers as well as new faces in the months and years to come.
Today...
Salem Iron & Metal is owned and operated by Daryl and Marlene Beckner. Their daughter, Liz is the 4th generation to work at the scrap yard and is a vital part of the day to day operations.
A family owned and operated recycling bussiness since 1968.
