What happens to your steel after drop-off

We collect incoming material and sort it by composition and grade. That sorting is what determines what you get paid, and it is why presorted loads earn more.

Materials are stored safely in our on-site containers, while our trucks, cranes, excavators, loggers, and balers make it easy to process just about any material.

Your ferrous scrap provides you with additional cash revenue while benefiting the environment. We weigh it, grade it, and pay you on the spot.

An industrial facility of the kind that puts recycled metal back into production

Sustainability that supports the local economy

Scrap that comes through the yard goes back to mills as raw material, and the money for it stays with local businesses and homeowners.

Every ton that stays out of a landfill and goes back into production is a ton that did not have to be mined.
