Bins & Hauling
Got more scrap than you can haul yourself? We’ve been recycling metal in Downtown Modesto since 1920, and we’ll bring the bins and trucks to you.
THE RIGHT PRICE. THE BEST SERVICE.
Our Bins
If scrap metal piles up as part of your regular work, we make it easy to recycle without hauling it in yourself. Our forklift-movable bins, roll-off containers, and flatbed trucking let businesses and individuals collect metal on-site and turn it in the right way. The same setup handles bigger jobs, from farm and ranch cleanups to commercial and industrial site clearouts. We cover a wide service area across the Central Valley, so reach out and we’ll get your metal recycled for the best price.

Hauling
When the load is too big to bring in, our trucking crew comes to you. We haul scrap metal for homeowners, ranchers, and farmers, along with commercial and industrial sites, so a full cleanout doesn’t have to sit and wait. Our hauling service reaches Ceres, Merced, Modesto, Patterson, Tracy, Sonora, Stockton, and the towns in between. Give us a call and we’ll set up a pickup that fits your schedule.

What’s the most common BIN SIZE?
Our 4x4 bin is the one most customers reach for. It holds a solid amount of metal without taking over your yard or lot, which makes it a good fit for contractors, shops, and anyone generating scrap regularly. Not sure it’s right? Tell us what you’re working with and we’ll point you to the best size.
How do I get a bin dropped off?
Just reach out by phone or through our contact form and let us know your location, the kind of metal you’re collecting, and roughly how much. We’ll schedule a drop-off, place the bin where it works for you, and arrange pickup when it’s full.
What areas do you cover for hauling?
Our trucks run throughout the Central Valley, including Ceres, Merced, Modesto, Patterson, Tracy, Sonora, and Stockton, plus the surrounding communities. If you’re a little outside that list, give us a call and we’ll let you know what we can do.
Do I need to sort the metal in the bin?
Not necessarily. You can collect mixed metal and we’ll sort and grade it when it comes in. If you’re able to keep higher-value metals like copper separate, that can help your payout, but it isn’t required.
How does payment work for bin and hauling loads?
Once your metal is weighed and graded, we pay based on current market prices for what you brought in. We’ll walk through the numbers with you so you know exactly what you’re getting, with no hidden fees for the service.
