Empire Watertown Inc

Welcome to Empire Recycling!

Our family has been in the scrap metal business for over 90 years - our family began by recycling rags and metals. We have expanded over the decades to include all types of metal and paper and also shredding of confidential documents. We often use the slogan 'we make it all go away'. That statement says it all - anything you need recycled, we can take care of. And you can be assured that it is done in the most environmentally safe way possible and that confidential documents are handled with the utmost security.

Today, we oversee the operation and growth of eight divisions across New York State. We are constantly updating our processes to recycle a larger volume of high quality materials to provice to mills and foundries throughout the United States and the world.

We look forward to working with you and to answer any questions you may have on Empire Recycling.

Services

Empire Recycling offers an array of scrap metal services across New York State to make removal and responsible recycling easy.

Our Fleet 

The Empire fleet includes dozens of tractor trailers and roll off trucks that span our eight locations throughout New York State. Whether moving heavy machinery that can't be cut down for scrap or needing an on-site container and pick up for your site, we can handle it all.

Roll Offs 

Applicable for many job sites and projects, roll off containers make removal of scrap metal easy. We have hundreds of containers available for use, in four sizes. Our fleet of trucks brings the roll off right to your site and picks it back up when you are done. All material is trucking back to our site for proper sorting, grading and packaging for recycling.

Walking Floor 

We have walking floor trailers available for easy loading and unloading of material.

We can give you a snapshot of the material you have at hand, and help you determine the most advantageous and profitable removal solution.
