How Much Is Scrap Iron, Steel & Iron Alloy Worth?

The price of metal is based on supply and demand. The amount you receive depends on when you bring in your scrap. Metal availability and market demand for it can increase or decrease the amount of money you’ll receive when you recycle it.

The quality of the scrap metal also affects its worth. For instance, separating the types of steel, structural from sheddable tin will increase your return. When you bring your iron or steel recycling into our facility, our team of experts will help you understand the grade of your material and its value. We feature a transparent process for weighing and pricing your scrap metal so you are assured that you are receiving the most competitive price available.
