Commercial Metal Recycling
Recycling metal waste from your business is sustainable and cost-effective. Separating any type and amount of commercial scrap metal for recycling extracts value from the materials and prevents them from going to landfill. Avoid disposing of waste metal with solid waste as it may end up in landfill and cost your company more.
Despite most metals being fully recyclable, 29% of nonferrous metal and 54% of ferrous metal waste ends up in landfills across the USA. At Business Waste, we offer commercial scrap metal recycling solutions for companies of any size and industry to manage your metal waste sustainably.
Recycle metal from your garages, construction site, warehouse, auto salvage yard, or anywhere else with ease.

Metal waste examples
There are two main categories of metals:
- Ferrous metals – iron, carbon steel, titanium, nickel, chromium, and manganese.
- Non-ferrous metals – aluminum, copper, lead, zinc, and precious metals (gold and silver).
Some products and waste items will be made of just one type of metal (such as an aluminum can), while others may contain a few different metals (like an old oven). There are many types of scrap metal that businesses produce, from old car parts from an auto mechanic to broken copper pipes used by plumbers.
At Business Waste, we can collect and recycle almost any kind of commercial scrap metal. Some common metal waste examples include:
- Aluminum cans
- Bed frames
- Bicycle frames

How does scrap metal recycling work?
The process for recycling metal depends on the specific material and facilities at the recycling center where it’s processed. In most cases, the different types of metal are separated and recycled in their own streams and turned into new metals for use creating fresh products.
This is the basic process for scrap metal recycling:
- Commercial scrap metal is collected and transported by fully licensed professionals to a nearby recycling center for processing.
- Metals are separated from other materials and contaminants, such as removing any plastic casings and metal from other products.
- Then ferrous and non-ferrous metals are sorted with the use of magnets. These are then further separated by type and cleanliness (if the metal is pure or impure) and checked they’re of a high enough quality to be recycled and reused.
- After the metals are separated into individual streams they’re shredded by hydraulic machinery into smaller pieces.
- These smaller pieces are melted in big furnaces and heated up to high temperatures, which vary depending on the type of metal.
- The melted metals are purified, often via electrolysis, which passes an electric current through it to separate and dissolve impure metals.
- Finally, any chemicals are added, and the melted metal is removed along a conveyor belt and taken to a cooling chamber to solidify. They might be pressed into sheets or compacted into blocks, before being sent to manufacturers to use for creating new products.

Scrap metal can be heavy and bulky depending on the type. We provide professional dumpster rental for any kind and volume of commercial metal waste. Dumpsters and bins are available to store everything from empty aluminum drink cans from a restaurant or store to large pieces of scrap metal pipes from a construction site.
Different sized dumpsters and bins can suit your storage and space needs. Use them to separate metal from other materials to reduce the risk of contamination and ensure as much as possible is recycled. Combine suitable bins with a collection frequency that’s cost-effective.
