ARCO Steel Company formerly known as Arco Trading Company, was founded in 1937. In the beginning, our company bought and sold used machinery and surplus steel and metals. Because of customer demand and changing market conditions, Arco stopped “trading“ in surplus items and evolved into a full steel service center.In the spring of 2003, Arco moved to a 60,000 square foot multi-crane warehouse at 1422 Chestnut Avenue in Hillside, New Jersey.This new warehouse allows us to expand, both our stock and our facilities, so that we can promptly and efficiently process all customer orders. With increased inventories, modern processing equipment and company owned trucks, we, at Arco Steel, pledge to give you the best attention and service.There is always an open house at Arco. Whether you need pick up, delivery or advice, our knowledgeable sales staff is available. Our priority is to provide you with quality products, dependability and good value. Our new location is just minutes from the New Jersey Turnpike, Route 22, Routes 1 & 9, Route 78, Route 24 and the Garden State Parkway.
