Those old appliances or rusty car parts that are hogging space in your garage? They could be worth something. We're all about turning your household scrap metal into something valuable. Not only for your pocket, but for the environment too.
Metal recycling is one of the easiest ways to help our planet. Reducing the need for new mined materials saves energy and cuts CO2 emissions. Best of all, almost all metals can be recycled over and over again. With Hayes Metals, you can drop off your unwanted metal items at our facilities, or we can pick them up from you. It's all about making recycling as easy as pie. So why not give it a try? Clean up your space, make a few bucks, and do your bit for the planet.
- Please refer to the Customer Drop-off link below for details on our recycling facility and the assessment and payment process.
