Why Recycle Scrap Metal?

At Victory Junk Removal we believe in reducing the amount of garbage in landfills, reusing whatever materials we can, and recycling the proper items. The metal recycling industry is one of the largest industries in the manufacturing world. Not only can recycling your scrap metals help provide your community with more jobs, but it also lowers the costs of new metals. The more we recycle the less we need to dig up the earth in search of new metals.

As many of you know, mining is an extreme strain on our environment. It is very invasive and requires an enormous amount of energy. Such endeavors cause major pollution to the surrounding area.

Simply put, recycling is the most efficient way to produce the metals we need. It uses significantly less energy all while preserving our environment. Another big reason we should recycle is to reduce the amount of waste going to our local landfills. Less garbage in the landfills means more space for our communities and a more sustainable future for all.

Can I put Scrap Metal in my Blue Bin?

In most cases, your local sanitation department will not pick up large scrap metal from the curb. That leaves you with the job of hauling it to the recycling center yourself.

If your paint cans have any remnants of wet paint inside, then they will not be accepted at a recycling center. If the paint can is completely dried on the inside, then it may be able to be recycled depending on the local rules. Don’t worry about the headache this can all cause and give Victory Junk Removal a call.
