The Scrap Metal Process – What To Do

Recycling Scrap Metal Might Seem Complicated, but at E. Schneider & Sons …. We Make It Easy

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how the process works:

1. Sort Your Scrap Metal

Before bringing your materials to our yard, sort your scrap metal into different categories.

We accept both ferrous (magnetic) and non-ferrous (non-magnetic) metals, and sorting your scrap will help us give you the best price for each type of material.

For example, copper, aluminum, and brass are all non-ferrous metals that tend to have higher value compared to ferrous metals like steel and iron.

4. Get Paid On the Spot

After your scrap is weighed and evaluated, you’ll receive immediate payment for your metal. Our team will provide you with a detailed receipt that reflects the total amount of scrap you brought in, as well as the payment you’ve received. It’s a simple, fast, and secure transaction.

5. Environmentally Responsible Processing

Once your scrap is processed and sorted, we work with licensed processors to ensure that the materials are recycled and repurposed in the most environmentally friendly way possible. We partner with facilities that adhere to all environmental regulations and make sure that the metals we receive are properly sorted and reused in the manufacturing of new products.
