The price for scrap metal varies daily based on global market demand, metal type, and current commodity values. Because prices fluctuate so frequently, we do not publish a fixed price list online.
To get the most accurate and up-to-date pricing for your specific material, whether it’s copper, aluminum, brass, or steel, please call us directly at (704) 873-9004. Our team will be happy to provide you with current scrap metal rates and help you understand the best time to sell your recyclables for maximum return.
The easiest way to tell the difference between steel and other metals is by using a magnet. A magnet will stick to ferrous metals, which contain iron, such as steel and cast iron. Nonferrous metals like copper, aluminum, and brass will not attract a magnet.
Identifying your metal type correctly helps ensure you receive the most accurate pricing and simplifies the sorting process at our facility.

Before recycling automobiles or appliances, we ask that you remove all fluids, including oil, gas, and coolant, as well as the gas tanks. This helps us maintain safety standards and comply with environmental regulations. For automobiles from model year 2013 or newer, you must present a valid title with a matching name and a government-issued photo ID. These requirements help prevent the sale of stolen vehicles and ensure compliance with state laws.
