Alaska Metal Recycling
720 East Whitney Rd, Anchorage, Alaska, United States

What does Alaska Scrap Metal and Recycling actually do?  Metal Recycling in Alaska is our game.  We recycle ALLtypes of metals including copper, bronze, aluminum, stainless steel, brass and iron.  We pay for all scrap metals based on a percentage of market price.  We will accept any metal scrap including appliances, junk cars, copper, aluminum, and iron, etc.  If it’s scrap metal we will take it and we will recycle it. The benefits of metal recycling are astounding.  Take for instance the aluminum pop can.  By recycling one pop can, the energy saved would power your television set for 3 hours.  That one pop can alone generates a 95% energy savings over digging ore out of the ground and processing it.  That’s amazing!  As the price of fuel goes up the value in recycled metals follow.  By recycling metal we are playing a huge part in energy conservation.

The benefits are many….saving energy has a global impact through energy conservation. Cleaning up neighborhoods has a local impact by raising property values for homeowners. Also we are alleviating environmental concerns that are present anytime you have junk vehicles rotting on the ground. We have salvaged 1000’s of junk cars and 1000’s of tons of iron from the Kenai Peninsula and the state of Alaska since our inception in January of 2008.  You may bring your junk car to either our Anchorage facility or our Soldotna facility. Bring all of your scrap iron and tin to us.  Non-ferrous scrap metal?  We pay for that and we recycle it, too!  Have too much?  It’s possible that we can come and pick it up.   Just give us a call to discuss your needs.

We buy and sell all types of scrap metal throughout the state of Alaska.  We offer scrap removal services, industrial, and oilfield cleanups, hauling services and more.  We have a recycling center located on the Kenai Peninsula in Soldotna and a recycling center located in Anchorage. Alaska Scrap and Recycling is a full-service scrap metal, metal recycling, and salvage enterprise that specializes in purchasing, recovering,  processing and shipping of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals.  If it is metal we will buy it from you.
