Just another day of turning bulky scrap into recyclable material at Big Daddy Scrap!

These empty stainless steel totes take up a lot of room, so we use our powerful shears to cut, crush, and break them down into smaller, more manageable pieces.

Big or small, Big Daddy Scrap gets the job done! 💪🏼

Ever see one of our torches in action?

Large pieces of industrial scrap can contain components with valuable metals like copper that need to be separated before everything can be properly processed. That’s where the torch comes in, helping our team break down the big stuff and recover the valuable material inside.

Torching is also useful to cut down oversized industrial scrap, making it easier to separate, process, and prepare for the next stage of recycling.

Big or small, we value your scrap at Big Daddy Scrap!
