The value of Scrap Metal commodities have increased substantially in recent years. To encourage and reward recycling patrons we pay top prices for both ferrous and nonferrous metals. Commodities like: steel, iron, cast & sheet metal, as well as appliances, electronics, and batteries can be recycled. High grade commodities like: Copper, Brass; Stainless Steel, Lead, Aluminum & Aluminum Cans, plus precious metals like Gold, Silver, Platinum and Palladium are all valuable metals. If it is metal, we can recycle it!
