Whether you’ve taken part in a remodel or updated your appliances, chances are you have some scrap metal lying around. The friendly professionals at Byer Steel in Cincinnati want to make you aware of how easy it is to make a profit through metal recycling. You can easily drop off your scrap metal at their recycling center and receive a cash payment right away. But which types of scrap metal will a metal recycling center accept?

Here, Byer Steel explains which types of scrap metal you can recycle and where they’re commonly found:

• Copper, Brass, & Aluminum: All items made from copper, brass, and aluminum can be recycled. Many of these items are found in homes and commercial buildings and in products like rods, wiring, heating systems, and decorative elements.
• Steel & Iron: Steel is one of the most common types of metal available, making it one of the most common scrap metals to be recycled. Steel and iron are often found in structural items and appliances.
• Radiators & Lead: Many radiators are made from aluminum or brass, but not many people know they can be recycled. Byer Steel accepts all metal radiators. If you’re unsure of your radiator’s composition, an associate will help you identify it on site. Additionally, despite the associated health issues, lead is still commonly used and can be brought to a metal recycling center. In fact, the majority of the lead products used today are actually made from recycled items.

If you have scrap metal in your yard or a radiator sitting in your garage from your last remodel, it’s time for you to make some cash from it. Byer Steel’s metal recycling facility offers a convenient indoor drop-off site for your scrap metal. Stop by their Cincinnati location to earn some quick cash from your unwanted metal, or check out their website for the current metal prices. They can also be reached by phone at (513) 948-0300.
