All Metals Recycling

All Metals Recycling's been serving Northern New England since 1974.

The business was founded by land surveyor Richard Towns as Green Mountain Sanitation, a waste handling company. It didn't take long for him to realize the real value in the business was in recycling, so he began focusing on recycling construction debris and metals.By '95, metal recycling constituted most of the business's activity, so Richard sold the waste business; and his sons, Robbin and Ryan, founded All Metals Recycling, firmly focused on metal recycling.

Brother Randy joined the firm in 2007, and Rachel Towns, the company's third generation, came on board in '11.The company's grown greatly over the years, becoming one of the largest private employers in Hardwick. In '95 we had just four employees and a couple of trucks. Now we employee 30 people and have an entire fleet of trucks and heavy equipment.In 2008, we added another scrapyard: in Williston.

Why recycle?

With AMR, recycling is earth-friendly in more ways than one

Metal recycling is the ultimate recycling process, because everything is eventually turned into a new product.

Green facilities
Our scrapyards are designed to minimize impact to ground soil: We do all of our recycling on top of impermeable concrete surfaces.

And we're always looking for ways to improve our carbon footprint. Our transportation fleet uses earth-friendly, high-miles-to-the-gallon bio-diesel, and we've managed to cut our emissions by 40-50 percent by carefully managing our routes so we run our trucks loaded both ways. Dad would've been especially proud of that.

Reuse it as-is
At AMR, we know it's even better if we can recycle your item as-is.

That's why we sell most of the tires we accept for re-use as tires. And we donate a good many of them to Wheels for Warmth. That Central Vermont charity re-sells them with proceeds supporting the Central Vermont Community Action Council's emergency and supplemental fuel assistance program to help residents on fixed incomes and with limited resources with home heating fuel.We drain all gasoline from junk cars we recycle and re-use it. Used waste oil gets converted to heating oil.

Employees, too
AMR even recycles employees: More than a couple of people who started out working for our father have returned to work for us years down the road.

Commercial

Manufacturers, municipalities, plumbers, electricians, auto dealers and garages, general contractors and builders ... we've been helping business of all sizes in Vermont, New Hampshire and Northern New York just like yours maximize the value of their scrap metal for decades.

Top dollar
We've gotten pretty good at what we do, but we don't rest on our laurels. The AMR team's constantly researching and analyzing the metals market and sourcing our materials to multiple buyers in carefully selected markets ... all to maximize the price we pay you.
