For bare brite copper (stripped shiny copper wire free of the jacket of insulation), visit us between 8am-4pm Monday-Friday at 1045 Lancaster Avenue in Columbia. Cans can be whole or crushed and placed in bags or drums. It is best to dump small grocery bags loose into large garbage bags so the process is quicker in the yard.
Pull up to the office at 1045 Lancaster Avenue in Columbia Monday-Friday between 8am and 4pm and Shelbie will direct you inside the gate and around to the back of the small metals scale where we will help you unload and weigh all of your metals–it is preferred if they are divided into different containers on your vehicle. If it’s your first visit we need your driver’s license to scan and give you a weight ticket. Proceed to the office and scan your ticket at our cash dispenser and collect your money!
