If you don’t know what you’re talking about, it might as well all be Latin. Let us show you what metals we deal with and how they are classified.

Magnet Test

 

To figure out whether a metal is worth money or not is a fairly simple test:

  • Take a magnet (could be one right off of your fridge!)
  • Stick the magnet to the material that you have
  • If the magnet sticks, then the material is steel and is worth very little but Rockaway Recycling will throw it into a steel dumpster to make sure that it is taken care of the right way
  • If the magnet DOES NOT stick, then you are in luck because the material is going to be worth money

Please call 1.800.317.JUNK for any questions on your material


Special Thanks to V.Buechel for taking such great pictures of materials and of the shop.
