Tips for Scrap Metal Recycling
Did you know that scrap metal recycling diverts 145 million tons of materials away from landfills? Do you want to cash in on this trend? If you are interested in getting into scrap metal recycling or you’ve been doing it for a while here are some great tips for scrap metal recycling.
Separate Your Metals!
If you want to get the most money for your scrap metal then the best tip out there is to separate all of your metals by type. For example, put your ferrous metals, aluminum metals, copper metals in their separate piles when delivering it to the scrap yard.
Clean Your Metals!
What? You don’t really have to clean them in the truest sense of the word; you just need to make sure you strip off any rubber, any plastic housing, and any wood. This will ensure you get the most value for your money out of your metal. You should also hose off any car radiators, steel screws from aluminum doors and steel screws from car parts. Just make sure there is no oil, glass or gasoline residue on your scrap metal.
Best Places to Find Scrap Metal
Your own garage believe it or not, or your friend’s, family and neighbor’s garages. You can even find scrap metal at your workplace.
Ferrous Metal vs. Non-Ferrous Metal
Ferrous metal is any metal that has iron in it like steel, tin, and iron (of course!). Non-Ferrous metal is any metal that has none or very discernible amounts of iron, which include copper, aluminum, and zinc.
Is it Magnetic?
A small magnet will tell you if you have ferrous versus non-ferrous metal. If the magnet sticks it is ferrous.
What’s the Going Rate?
Before you sell, check prices in your area. Like everything dealing with metals the price changes daily and hourly. Usually, ferrous metals typically sell from $.03 to $.11+/pound. Non-ferrous metals typically sell from $.30 to $2.80+/pound.
Know Your Heavy Metal
There are many websites devoted to scrap metal recycling and the terms you need to know if you are going to sell scrap metal. Following are just a few of the grades of copper that you may come across when selling scrap copper metal:
- Copper #1 – A heavy scrap copper which consists of clean, unalloyed copper solids and must be uncoated.
- Copper #2 – Same as above but may be coated or oxidized and can include clippings, or punchings.
- Copper Wire Insulated #3 – Consists of copper wiring that can be insulated with plastic or unalloyed copper wire, the type that can be found in telephone wires.
Using the above tips will make your part-time hobby or full-time business more profitable.
