I Have Some Questions…

If you have ferrous and non-ferrous items on the same load keep those separated for fast and efficient service we suggest that you separate various materials by type.

Any items that do or could contain any form of liquid should be drained prior to arrival, with the exception of whole automobiles.  You do NOT need to drain any auto fluids.

We can NOT accept sealed cylinders (propane, Freon, oxygen, etc.)

Large tanks must be rinsed with a 1’ x 1’ opening (restrictions may apply)

55 gallon drums are not accepted

Machinery or equipment must have all fluids removed prior to delivery-Batteries are accepted but must be separated from machinery.
 
Aluminum cans should be clean and dry (or subject to deductions)

Steel cans-food cans must be rinsed (clean) and segregated from other materials

Auto or truck rims NOT attached to an automobile must have the tire removed

Separating non-ferrous materials by grade will maximize dollar value. (Separate #1 copper from #2 copper or light copper).  Our staff will educate on this technique.

Separating insulated wires by grade will maximize dollar value. Our staff will educate on this technique.

Non-ferrous materials that are free of steel, other contaminating metallic or any other contaminates will maximize dollar value.

Some Things To Keep In Mind

NC Law Regulations

North Carolina law requires the following criteria be met to sell regulated metals (scrap metal: ferrous & nonferrous)

Aluminum Copper evaporator coils (radiators) or condensers can only be purchased  from companies, contractors or individuals who are in the business of installing, replacing, maintaining or removing said items.  We require written proof of compliance.

Requirements to sale automobiles

We may accept a vehicle for purchase that is 10 years or older without a title.  The VIN number must be legible as we are required to run the VIN threw a state system of stolen vehicles.  If you have the title we prefer to have said title as record of transaction.

We may accept a vehicle for purchase that is 10 years or newer with the following conditions:

·      We must have the title, the title must be in the sellers name, there can be no lean on the title or we must have proof a stated lien is satisfied.

Nonferrous recyclables

Look Around You Can Recycle!
 
Nonferrous recyclables, including alloys, do not contain appreciable amounts of iron.  These materials are desirable due to light weight (aluminum) and high conductivity (copper). The most common types of nonferrous scrap include: Aluminum, Copper, Nickel, Brass, Lead, and various high temp alloys.
We purchase the following nonferrous scrap in standard form (bar, coil, clip, solids, sheet, stampings, and turnings, tubing).  Any other forms you have, including equipment, new and used items please call for a quote.  Environmental, processing and safety restrictions apply.
