Scrap Metal Facts

Recycling is an important ‘helping hand’ to protect our environment while simultaneously offering a great opportunity to earn a bit of extra cash for your efforts! Below are a few facts about scrap metal recycling.

  • Recycling 1 aluminum can saves enough energy to run a 100-watt bulb for 20hrs, a computer for 3hrs or a TV for 2hrs.
  • The steel industry saves enough energy in one year to electrically power 18 million homes for a year.
  • It takes an entire tree to make a typical wood pole; one scrap car produces more than four steel poles.
  • The average American throws out about 651lbs of tin cans every month.
  • Americans throw away enough aluminum every month to rebuild our entire commercial air fleet.
  • The 36 billion aluminum cans that were land filled last year had a scrap value of more than $600 million dollars!

Busy scrap metal place. Best prices in area. Staff can be a little pushy but understandable because of the volume they do. Steel goes to the first pile on left . Precious metals to the hand scales straight forward request a hopper larger loads usually send you around the corner

I love coming to scrap yard I really like dealing with most of your employees.. but I must say that your cashier Miss Tina is probably the best asset at the scrap yard without her they would probably be a lot less of your customers coming here she makes your day worthwhile when you see her she is a wonderful person ... she cares about the customers that come here so I'm giving Ms. Tina five thumbs up and I I hope that Suncoast metals knows what kind of asset they have in her to be in their employee.

This is the scrapyard to go to! Everyone is always friendly and smiling! Have to say Brittany, Jose, & Veronica have the best smiles! Still getting to know others there! When you go to the big scale, Brittany will make your day brighter with her great attitude! Makes for good business when you feel good about going!!!

I come here as often as I can Suncoast treats me pretty good. Britney the young lady at the large scale house is very nice and always has a smile. The other crew at the smaller scales are in good moods and take care of customers as quickly as they can. The cashiers are the same taking care of customers as quick as they can with a smile and maybe a joke or two. They talk to their customers making for a more personal experience were other places do not and and because of the people like Britney, Tina, Veronica and the rest of them I will continue to do my business with Suncoast Metals

Oh my goodness..the people here at Suncoast Metals are so kind, helpful and friendly to our Charity AngelLandFoodForest.org we feed people on Englewood Florida. We made $300 today that we send to Flanzertrust.org and they match. We have a 3rd donor who will match. So that $300 of scrap metal turns into $900 for the charity. This will allow us to buy more mango trees for our free community mango tree project. 2 of us, call ourselves the Lady Scrappers. Want to help..please. Triple your donation until December 31st 2021. Thank you from all the mouths you will feed but not see.

Everyone there has always been kind and courteous. We run a business and time is money. We are in and out in no time and they have helped us out a lot by pointing out which metals to separate to make the most money when we get dumpsters. I would not go anywhere else.

It was decent for my first experience I was looking around while I waited a good minute for some help .. it’s very how would I say it …. Chaotic , i tried asking for help and All I got was “ so what you funna do is pull up and wait “ but then a lady said “ no go to the main entrance and then park on a number and then wait.. My over all experience was mmm okay I mean I was only forgotten about , then again it is a recycling place sooo I couldn’t expect to be treated A++ but I love the diversity here . We Stan and love a good cultural environment .

Great place , super employees very friendly and helpful. If I could improve anything it would be the customers. Many times I am behind a customer who has not sorted their metals and we wait for them to sort on site. This slows down the line. It's a small complaint and not directed at suncoast. Just a polite suggestion from one scrapper to another.

Buen trato de las personas coordinando el tráfico y los que te pesan los metales, solo hay que tener mucho cuidado ya que hay mucho movimiento de forklift y camiones grandes. La cajera súper amable, muy buen lugar, lo recomiendo

Told one price on phone..took the time..cleaned all my aluminum..screws..any other metals..few hours time..got there..offered me half price..cause had a few screens..splines attached..!! Took stuff there in the past..thought for sure would not take..never had a issue..this time left with $150 less then planned..drove past several other places..because of past experiences..this time..was a bust..!!
