For the trades

Built for
the trades.

You have enough to manage. The scrap shouldn’t be part of it.

We built this business on big contractor accounts. Small and mid-size shops get run exactly the same way — same prices, same crew, same speed.

[Section awaiting replacement concept & real yard photography — Mike prefers showing the live operation (trust, speed, activity) over this treatment. Existing copy preserved pending Mike/David review; not final.]

Jeffrey Sissons opened the business in Deer Park, New York in 1994 and set the rule we still run on: pay a fair price, grade it honestly, and treat the guy with a pickup truck the same as the guy with a fleet.

The operation moved about twenty miles west to Westbury. In 2011 we opened DPR Scrap Metal as a dedicated ferrous yard — heavy iron got a home of its own, and the non-ferrous side stayed sharp on grading.

Still local. Still independent. Still known for paying what we say we’ll pay.

Questions

Common questions

What types of scrap metal do you buy?

We buy ferrous and non-ferrous scrap across two yards in Westbury, NY. Non-ferrous — copper, brass, aluminum, stainless steel, insulated wire, lead, batteries and radiators — goes to Deer Park Recycling. Ferrous — steel, light iron, cast iron, beams, appliances and machinery — goes to DPR Scrap Metal.

Which yard should I visit — ferrous or non-ferrous?

Non-ferrous metal goes to Deer Park Recycling at 54 Kinkel St, (516) 333-6145. Ferrous (iron and steel) goes to DPR Scrap Metal at 125 Hopper St, (516) 280-9353. Not sure which you have? Call either yard.

Where are the yards located?

Both yards are in Westbury, NY, minutes apart. Deer Park Recycling is at 54 Kinkel St; DPR Scrap Metal is at 125 Hopper St. We serve Long Island, Nassau County and all five NYC boroughs.

Do I need to separate my metal first?

You don't have to have it perfectly sorted — every load is weighed and graded in front of you. Keeping copper, brass and aluminum separate from steel helps. If you're not sure how something grades, call or send a photo before you load.

What if I'm not sure what material I have?

Send a photo or call the yard before you load it, and we'll tell you which gate to use and what it is before you make the trip. Non-ferrous (516) 333-6145; ferrous (516) 280-9353.

Call the yard.

Tell us what you have and where it is. We’ll tell you what it’s worth, which gate to use, and whether we should send a truck instead.
