Our History

Established in 1982, Legend Smelting and Recycling started out as a small non-ferrous recycling center in Newark, Ohio. Soon, the first catalytic converters started entering the salvage yards, and LSR was one of the first companies to capitalize on this valuable resource. The company grew rapidly; opening more collection sites across the United States, and moving into a larger warehouse to handle the increasing volume of material. We have been trend-setting in the industry since it's conception, and we continue to this day.
