Steel covers a wide range of ferrous scrap: plate, pipe, tube, bar, angle, and fabricated steel from construction, demolition, and manufacturing.
Customers bring it in as cut plate, old pipe and railing, tank steel, equipment frames, and general steel off structural and machine jobs. If a magnet sticks to it, it is ferrous and belongs at the ferrous yard.
Separation helps a load run clean. Keep copper, brass, aluminum, and stainless out of plain steel, and knock off heavy non-metal like concrete, wood, and dirt where you can. Oversized or long pieces may need cutting — call first if you are unsure.
Steel is handled at DPR Scrap Metal, the ferrous yard at 125 Hopper St, Westbury, NY. We are set up for heavy, high-volume loads, with honest weights and pickups and roll-off containers available.
