What this means… Your commercial and industrial scrap, non-ferrous metals, and even junk cars and scrap metal can be shredded on-site faster and more efficiently – that means more cash in your pocket.

OUR BACK STORY

"Butch" Levell, Sr.

$ 0

AND A LOT OF GUTS!

Levell’s Auto Parts

In 1960 at age 19, Fred “Butch” Levell, Sr. bought a tow truck for $100 and started a business on 5th and Locust in Carter Lake called “Levell’s Auto Parts.”

Original Fire in the Belly

In the early days, the best way to get copper and other recyclables from old cars was to burn the cars out and snip out what was left after the fire.

Lakeside Auto Recyclers was Born – 1977

In 1977, Lakeside Auto Recyclers was founded when Butch Levell, Sr., opened up a new shop on 9th and Locust that focused on auto parts only.

2000

In 2000, a scale was installed and on site recycling began.

2015

In 2015, Lakeside discontinued the parts business and became a full on scrap recycling facility.

Today…

Lakeside Auto Recyclers is owned and operated by Mike Jr. and Mike Sr., as a 10 acre, third-generation, family-owned business out to SHRED THE WORLD.

“Passion and loyalty is what drives us, to be the best scrap yard in the area. Helping customers and employees to have a great experience while making money is what sets Lakeside apart from the rest!”

– Mike Levell, Jr.
