Highest Scrap Metal Yields

At Shapiro Metals, we combine our expertise in marketing with strong buyer relationships to provide you an increased scrap metal revenue stream. We further maximize yields from your scrap metal through Lean and Green Scrap Manufacturing. The Shapiro Metals segregation process is cost-effective and efficient, using clearly marked bins at the point of scrap production to divide your scrap into different categories. We assist you with practical training to maximize your scrap segregation, all the while using minimal labor resources, often resulting in a 20% or greater increase in the scrap value.
