There's a company in the Cavalier industrial park, BMG Metal across the street from the CAT dealer. Take I-64 to Military Hwy ( exit 297) go straight though the light, the 711 will be on your left , once you cross Military HWY you will be on Cavalier BLVD, go down and make the last right before the railroad tracks onto Business Center DR. go down till you see the CAT dealer and it's across the street. Tell them what you are looking for and ask to look in the "cut off" pile. The "cut off" pile are left over pieces of all different sizes and thickness. ...bring cash. I was just in there buying some last week.

3325 Business Center Dr
Chesapeake, VA 23323-2637
(757) 487-1963
