Scrap Metal Pickup

Scrap metal does not belong in the regular junk pile. Old appliances, metal furniture, copper, wiring, and similar pieces route to Schnitzer / Radius Recycling — and any eligible metal value received at the recycler is credited back to you.

Why this service matters

Scrap Metal Pickup

Best for appliances, metal furniture, gym frames, water heaters, copper pipe, wiring, and other scrap metal that should not be lumped with general waste.

This page explains the service clearly: what gets hauled, what customers should expect, and where the crew can help fastest.

Eligible scrap metal value received from the recycler is credited back to the customer.
Send photos of the metal pieces you want gone. We will flag which items are likely to generate a recycler credit so you know what is being credited back.

How this lane works

We separate scrap metal out of standard cleanouts and haul it to a real metal recycler — Schnitzer Steel / Radius Recycling — rather than tossing it in with general waste. That covers old refrigerators and washers, metal patio furniture, gym frames, water heaters, BBQ grills, bicycles, copper pipe, electrical wiring, and similar material.

Here is the important part for the customer: any eligible scrap metal value we receive at the recycler is credited back to you. That credit can be applied against the same job’s cleanout pricing or returned, depending on the load. Final amounts are confirmed after the recycler weighs and grades the material.

Pricing for the haul itself still depends on volume, access, and how heavy or mixed the load is. Photos help us scope the pickup and tell you up front which items are likely to generate a metal credit.
