This page has two sections: Buying Prices and Selling Prices. Also, see the Barrel Selling Prices!
Buying Prices
- Call for bonus rates if you have over 100 pounds of one of these metal grades!
- All metals must meet our grading standards.
- All prices are in cents per pounds unless noted.
- If you would like to sign up to receive an email when this page is updated, send us an email!
* Be sure to review our information about the Non-ferrous Scrap Metal Recycling law! *
If the total amount of your transaction is more than $30 you will be mailed a check 10 days after you bring the metal in for recycling. Special rules apply for business customers - ask for more information.
Be sure to bring a valid state-issued driver's license or ID card each time you bring scrap metals. Aluminum cans are exempt for the $30 rule.
