Lead
Removing lead-containing products properly is incredibly important! Items such as batteries contain lead, and when not disposed of properly they can leech harmful and toxic chemicals into the environment.
Taking your old lead and batteries to a professional scrap company is a great way to ensure you are doing your part for the environment and disposing of them properly. This also reduces the amount of lead manufacturing that is needed if it can be removed.

If you have old radiators lying around, scrapping them is a great option. Radiators are often made of many different materials. A knowledgeable team such as ours knows how to separate these materials and ensure it is being removed as efficiently as possible.

Some people choose to replace or upgrade their car motors or are left with a car that no longer functions due to age or damage. Regardless, often they are left with old motors that are taking up space and no longer have any benefit to them.
Scraping these motors is a great option, not only do you no longer have to deal with it taking up space – but it is also a great way to earn some money. Additionally, the materials removed from old motors mean less new metal needs to be manufactured and processed – which is much better for the environment!
