What types of metal can be picked up during a single appointment?

Ferrous metals like steel beams and iron machinery, non-ferrous metals such as copper wiring and aluminum siding, and mixed loads containing multiple metal types are all accepted during one scheduled visit.

How is payment determined for scrap metal?

Pricing is based on the weight and type of metal, calculated using current market rates for each category, with ferrous metals typically priced lower per pound than non-ferrous metals like copper or brass.

What preparation is required before the pickup crew arrives?

Metals do not need to be sorted, cleaned, or moved to a specific location, though clearing a path for truck access and identifying the materials to be removed helps streamline the process.

When is the best time to schedule a pickup for farm or construction scrap?

Late fall and early spring are common in Northeastern Pennsylvania when properties are cleared before planting season or after harvest, though pickups are available year-round regardless of weather conditions.

How much metal is needed to justify a pickup appointment?

There is no minimum volume requirement, so single appliances, small equipment pieces, or partial loads are picked up just as readily as full truckloads from demolition sites or industrial cleanouts.

Scrap Metal Pickup & Removal

Northeast Recycling purchases and removes ferrous and non-ferrous metals from homes, farms, businesses, construction sites, and industrial properties throughout New Milford, PA. Steel, iron, aluminum, copper, brass, and stainless steel are loaded, lifted, and transported without requiring you to move heavy materials yourself. Cash payments are based on current market values, and the process eliminates the need for rental trucks, equipment, or manual labor.

This service addresses situations where scrap metal accumulates from renovations, farm equipment upgrades, closed businesses, or aging machinery that no longer serves a purpose. Materials are weighed and priced on-site, and the entire removal process is handled by the pickup crew.

Schedule a pickup to receive a cash offer and remove scrap metal from your property on a date that works for your project timeline.

During pickup, metals are sorted into ferrous categories like steel and iron, and non-ferrous categories including aluminum, copper, and brass. Each metal type is priced separately according to current scrap market rates, which fluctuate based on demand and commodity pricing. The crew handles all loading and secures materials for transport to the recycling facility.

After removal, your property is cleared of bulky metal items that previously occupied barns, garages, yards, or storage areas. Space becomes available for new equipment, vehicles, or redevelopment projects. Payment is issued on-site once materials are weighed and categorized, with no delays or follow-up appointments required.

Pickup services accommodate loose scrap, bulk loads, and oversized items that cannot fit in standard vehicles. Projects range from single-item removals to complete site clearances involving multiple truckloads of material. Scheduling flexibility allows pickups to align with construction timelines, seasonal cleanups, or business closures.
