Scrap metal removal
in Columbia, MO.
Scrap metal removal is the pickup and haul-away of unwanted metal objects, from old appliances to fencing to construction leftovers. In Columbia, we collect ferrous and non-ferrous metals and route them to recyclers. Recycling scrap metal keeps it out of the landfill, lowers the embodied energy of new metal products, and frees up your space.
What we take
If you are not sure whether something on your list qualifies, call. The answer is almost always yes.
- Steel and iron (ferrous metals)
- Aluminum siding, gutters, and frames
- Copper wire and plumbing
- Brass fixtures and hardware
- Stainless steel
- Old appliances (washers, dryers, fridges)
- Metal shelving and racking
- Metal fencing, gates, and posts
- Lawn equipment (mowers, trimmers, blowers)
- Auto parts (excluding fluids and tires)
- Cast iron tubs, sinks, and radiators
- Farm equipment and old machinery
What we cannot take
Whole running vehicles, items with active fluid leaks, sealed pressure vessels (propane tanks).
Why us for this specifically
- Forklift on the truck. For cast iron tubs, industrial racking, and the truly heavy pieces.
- We sort on the truck. You do not separate ferrous from non-ferrous. We handle it on the way to the recycler.
- Farms and shops welcome. Years-old metal piles in barns, sheds, and back lots are exactly our wheelhouse.
All Columbia disposal is tracked: donations to Love Columbia and City of Refuge, certified recyclers for metals and electronics, and the City of Columbia Bioreactor Landfill as the last stop for what is left.
