What is Non-Ferrous Metal Recycling?

Non-ferrous metals are metals that do not contain significant amounts of iron. This includes common metals like aluminum and copper, as well as brass, bronze, stainless steel, lead, zinc, nickel, and various specialty alloys. Unlike ferrous metals (iron and steel), non-ferrous metals do not rust, making them valuable for many applications—and for recycling.

At Fitzsimmons Metal Company, we specialize exclusively in non-ferrous scrap metal recycling. This focus allows us to provide expert grading, competitive pricing, and efficient processing for all types of non-ferrous materials. Whether you're bringing in household aluminum cans or industrial copper turnings, you'll benefit from our decades of specialized experience.

"From aluminum to zinc, we buy it all—and we pay fairly for every pound."

Why Recycle Scrap Metal?

Recycling non-ferrous scrap metal is good for your wallet and good for the environment. Metal recycling conserves natural resources by reducing the need for mining virgin ore. It saves energy—recycling aluminum uses 95% less energy than producing new aluminum from bauxite. And it keeps valuable materials out of landfills.

For businesses, recycling scrap metal can turn a cost center into a revenue stream. Instead of paying to dispose of metal byproducts, you get paid for them. Our industrial recycling programs make it easy to capture this value with minimal disruption to your operations.
