Aluminum Scrap Metal Recycling: Can Wednesdays!

Aluminum scrap metal recycling, ladies and gentlemen, happens all the day long in Goldsboro, NC! Check out this excerpt from an article by The Aluminum Association: "The amount of energy saved just from recycling cans in 2011 is equal to the energy equivalent of over 17 million barrels of crude oil. That's the amount of oil needed to fuel more than 1 million vehicles on the road for 12 months."

Yes, that news is from a couple of years ago, but it's still just as valid today. Basic math and oil haven't changed too much over the past century, and we believe that in this world, the more aluminum can recycling the better! This is exactly why we offer an extra $0.03 per pound of aluminum cans on Wednesdays. Drop by our facility, Goldsboro Metal Recycling, located at 801 N. John Street, Goldsboro, NC. There'll be a scrap metal recycling party going on! Scrap those aluminum cans. The only time you'll get extra this week is TODAY, Wednesday, at one of the best places for scrap recycling in the area. After one of our friendly staff pours your cans onto the conveyer of our premium can machine, you'll be able to stand back, relax, and enjoy the sight of your cans getting weighed and then popped out the other side! So taking your cans to Goldsboro Metal Recycling isn't just helping the environment and giving you a little extra cash, it's an entertaining and action-packed event that you're likely to never forget!

After your aluminum cans (crushed or not) go through the can machine and out the other side as crushed cans, your load will get launched into a dumpster filled with hundreds of thousands of their crushed can friends! After that, the giant container of all the cans is dumped out onto a conveyer. The conveyer carries all of them up an incline. Shortly after the cans reach the top of the incline, they fall into a rectangular hole. A big, giant steel block then compresses the thousands of cans together, mashing them into "bales." You can see many of these bales of cans in the below image.

Copper Wire Recycling in Goldsboro, NC

Copper Wire Aluminum Wire Recycling

Have a nest of on your hands (or in a bunch of boxes or bags)? Wire recycling is easy. Yes copper wire and Aluminum wire!  If you've been tangled up in nests of wires one time too many, consider a little something called wire recycling. It's not as hard as you might think--many people suspect that to recycle their scrap wires, they have to strip each and every one of them. Well, good news to the rescue: Goldsboro Metal Recycling (see address in top-right corner of page) accepts and recycles insulated wire all day long. Actually, of the hundreds or thousands of pounds of wire delivered daily to the facility, more is insulated than not. So no worries; we'll proudly be the buyer of you're insulated copper wire or alumiuim wire!

Basic Wire Classification

When it comes to wire recycling, typically if your copper wire is more metal than plastic, we'll classify it as more valuable. You can take a look at the end of a wire and see how much of its diameter is metal and how much is plastic. Flimsy wires are generally going to be cheaper than stiffer wire because they contain more plastic than metal. Christmas lights and drop chords and alot or copper, for instance, won't make you as much money as the harder-to-bend wire. Take the comparison below as an example. You can gauge how much metal is in a wire by bending it 90 degrees and then holding it upright like a wand. If an insulated copper wire or maintains its shape after you bend it, it's likely more than 50% metal, probably copper. If the wire sags, as in the image on the right, it is probably composed of more insulation than anything else.

Stiff wire is more valuable when doing some wire recyclingStill good for wire recycling, cheap wire is usually be able to keep a 90-degree bend.


But is our process of wire recycling environmentally friendly?

Every now and then a recycling company will show up in the periodicals, chided for polluting the environment with by-products from its recycling processes. But Goldsboro Metal Recycling likes to keep its side of the street clean. Every day we take action to abide by EPA's standards of industry cleanliness and other federal regulations so our staff's and customer's experiences at the facility remain nothing shy of commendable.
