The Power of Recycling
Sure, who doesn’t love to make some extra cash from scraps? But did you know that when you recycle, you are making a significant impact on the world around you? If metal makes its way to the landfill, it will remain there decade after decade before it can begin to break down. With recycling, there is no wasted space.
Recycling also reduces the need for mining which, in turn, decreases dangerous pollutants, such as greenhouse gases. New products will be able to be created using less energy and will transform the metal into a new, usable product that still has all of its powerful traits and characteristics.
In other words, if you are interested in conserving natural resources, recycle your scrap metal over and over again. And, of course, get paid for it.
With L. Gordon Iron & Metal Company, you can feel good knowing that your scrap metal will be recycled and delivered to companies of all types that trust us to fulfill their business needs.
