Benefits Of Our Pickup Services
McSteel’s pickup services offer benefits you won’t find anywhere else. We prioritize the health of the environment, ensuring recycled metal finds a safe home and is recycled properly. Our pick-up services make recycling scrap metal simple—there’s no good excuse for leaving the abandoned car on the field anymore.
We service businesses and communities across Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories, covering most of Canada. And, as long as you satisfy the minimum volume and metal type restrictions, we can provide an out-of province pick-up as well.
Recycling is essential for resource conservation. Reusing metals prevents them from going into landfill sites, bringing it back into use and creating a circular economy. It also lowers energy consumption: the production of virgin metals and alloys is carbon intensive, while metal recycling reduces the produced emissions drastically.
How Metal Recycling Works
Metal recycling involves going through several steps. The goal is to take unused metal from vehicles, machinery, and equipment and turn it into something new.
Here’s how the process works:
- We collect scrap metal from people like you
- Our team sorts it into various metal groups using magnets and sensors
- We process pieces of metal into smaller, more manageable chunks
- Any existing dirt, oil, or grime on the metal’s surfaces is removed
- The metal is melted in a furnace
- The molten metal is refined to remove any debris or other elements still in the material
- We form it into the desired shape and leave it to cool
- Then, McSteel can pass on the new metal to manufacturers
