I still know of a non-ferrous metals recycling yard near me that has a

don't have any idea where to find the same now in a steel source - it
takes time to go from one supplier to the next to see what their
policies/proceedures are.

Well, in 5 years, you will have to order your materials from China!
There's not going to be much stock of anything left in the US.
At least you can still find material where you don't have to freight
it in from overseas.

unlikely - every major city I've been in has multiple suppliers of metal,
and we still use metal - it won't be "order from china" in any of our
lifetimes.
