Farmers are constantly dealing with a surplus of scrap metal from broken down machinery and equipment, old rusty tools and unusable spare parts. Collecting and recycling scrap metal on agricultural land regularly is crucial so it does not pollute the soil.
McSteel Salvage & Clean Up offers scrap metal collection and pick-up services to farmers across Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories. Here at McSteel, we believe in offering environmentally conscious, fair, and efficient collection services where our team leaves the land better than we found it.

Scrap Metal Collection Process
The size and time McSteel’s collection crew spends on your site depends on the industry, location, and volume of scrap metal. Farmers can expect a team of 2-3 men to be working on their property for just shy of a week.
We don’t have any specific requirements for preparing the site before our crew arrives. If there are heaps of metal hiding in the trees, bringing them to the forefront would be helpful but not necessary.
We offer a flat bin rate if you’re simply looking to get rid of the scrap metal. However, if you want to maximize your return, we recommend separating the ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
McSteel’s Farm Yard Clean Up Process
The first thing our team does when arriving on-site is unloading our machinery, like the loader and shredder. If the owner is around, the team will tour the site, and then our team gets to work right away. When the team is on-site, we do our best to stay out of your hair.
Our team has the equipment, training, and experience to collect the scrap metal and your land in pristine condition. “Leave no trace” is the McSteel motto. After all scrap metal has been collected from the farm, McSteel’s clean-up team ensures we leave the land looking better than we found.
Fair Evaluation & Pay Out
The scrap metal industry has many shady and dishonest dealers who are more than happy to undersell farmers and devalue their metal. If you have been burned in the past by a metal salvager, rest assured that your experience with McSteel will be completely different.
McSteel has maintained a well-earned reputation of trustworthiness among farmers due to our dedication to transparent communication. We are not in the business of underselling or stealing from farmers; we take our time to break down and explain the collection process and what everything is worth.
