Frequently Asked Questions
What types of scrap metal do you accept in Ontario?
We accept most non-hazardous ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including steel, aluminum, copper, cast iron, and mixed metal items. Common examples are old appliances, exercise equipment, fencing, pipes, metal furniture, and leftover construction materials.
Do I need to separate the metal before your team arrives?
No—you don’t have to sort anything ahead of time. Our crew will handle sorting on-site to separate recyclable metals by type. If you do pre-sort (like keeping copper or aluminum separate), it can make the process even faster.
How much does scrap metal pickup cost in Ontario?
Pricing depends on factors like the volume, weight, and accessibility of the scrap. Small single-item pickups cost less, while larger cleanouts are typically priced by truck load or weight. We provide upfront estimates so there are no surprises.
Will you pick up scrap metal from inside my garage or basement?
Yes! We offer full on-property pickups. Our team will carefully remove scrap metal from inside garages, basements, sheds, backyards, or even second-floor rooms, using protective equipment to avoid damage to your property.
Where does my scrap metal go after pickup?
Your scrap metal is transported to certified recycling facilities in Ontario. It’s processed and turned back into usable raw material, reducing the need for new mining and keeping waste out of local landfills.
Can businesses and contractors in Ontario schedule recurring pickups?
Absolutely. We work with retail stores, restaurants, manufacturers, and construction contractors to provide routine or on-demand scrap pickups. This helps keep your property clean and meets waste diversion requirements.
How soon can you come for a scrap metal pickup?
We typically offer same-week availability across Ontario. During busier seasons (like spring cleanups or post-construction rushes), booking a few days ahead ensures you get your preferred time.
