Aluminum in scrap metal form is the same as money in your pocket. Aluminum just lying around on a job site is a waste in more ways that just lost money. Aluminum recycling is protecting the environment. Construction sites usually have a lot of scrap aluminum lying around.

Aluminum sheets, cans, clips, castings and siding pieces are all recyclable. The most recycled product in the U.S. is the aluminum can. An aluminum can will be recycled into another usable can and be back on the grocery shelf in 60 days. This is an amazing use of a recycled product. Since 1988, nearly 75 percent of all aluminum created is still in use today.

Aluminum is not the only metal product which is recycled. Old junk cars have a high recyclable value whether they are running or not. About 95 percent of the car is recycled. Copper wiring is another highly sought after item for recycling.

The amount of construction waste lying around the site is substantial and recyclable. This is a significant money maker considering all of the scrap metal which piles up when a building is being constructed. The average construction site can result in a Dumpster in Vineland being filled.

Homeowners often overlook the amount of metal no longer used which is perfect for scrap material. An old lawn mower, the replaced hot water heater, the pile of metal once used for fencing, and a number of other metal discards could fill a small Dumpster in Vineland. Neighbors might want to take advantage of the dumpster and get rid of some metal lying around and rusting away.

Commercial and industrial companies have scrap metal left from their manufacturing processes which is usually not disposed of as money-making scrap. When collected in a dumpster, it can add up to a nice sum of money.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says when neighbors get together and go over a large vacant land area they will fill a Dumpster in Vineland easily and make money for the Little League teams or the school which wants to buy playground equipment. There are endless possibilities for making money off of scrap metal.
