New Braunfels Recycling
How many times do you think you’ve thrown out something that could have been recycled and made you money? Maybe
you’re asking yourself, why would a New Braunfels recycling facility pay me money for something I think is junk?
Well, Bracken Recycling’s New Braunfels recycling division helps the environment by recycling and repurposing
all kinds of metal that would otherwise be junk so they can be turned into new items. New Braunfels recycling
also cuts down on ozone-depleting substance emissions coming from landfills.
What Kind of Metal is Considered Scrap?
Items you bring to our New Braunfels recycling division can include many forms of ferrous and non-ferrous
metals. What differentiates ferrous and non-ferrous metals is the iron found in ferrous metals that doesn’t
exist in non-ferrous metals. Ferrous metals are also magnetic. You can see from the Steel Recycling Institute
that “steel is the world’s most recycled material. The amazing metallurgical properties of steel allow it to be
recycled continually with no degradation in performance, and from one product to another.” These commonly
recycled materials are acceptable for New Braunfels recycling:
Ferrous Metals
Metal Fencing & Roofing
Structural Steel
Iron
Carbon Steel
Tin
Mild Steel
Non-ferrous Metals
Stainless Steel
Brass
Aluminum
Lead
Copper
Zinc
