If you live or work on the Gold Coast and you have scrap metal building up, you don’t need to send it to landfill. Whether you are a local tradie clearing a job site, a builder finishing a renovation, or a homeowner cleaning out the shed, Action Metal Recyclers can help you turn that metal into cash. Our Burleigh Heads scrap metal recycling yard makes it easy for Gold Coast locals to recycle close to home.
Why recycle your scrap metal
Metal is one of the few materials you can recycle again and again without it losing quality. Instead of paying to dump old pipes, wiring or steel offcuts, you can get paid for them. Recycling also keeps usable material out of landfill and cuts the need to mine new metal. It is a practical win for your wallet and for the environment.
What we buy on the Gold Coast
We buy a wide range of metals at our Burleigh Heads yard. That includes copper, brass, aluminium, steel, stainless steel, lead, radiators and catalytic converters. If you are not sure whether something is worth bringing in, our what we buy page runs through the full list. Copper and brass tend to be the most valuable, so it pays to sort those out first. You can read more on our copper and aluminium pages.
How to get paid for your scrap
Bringing your metal to the yard is simple. Sort it by type where you can, load it up and drive in. We weigh it, work out the value and pay you for it. Our cash for scrap service covers everything from a boot full of copper offcuts to a trailer of mixed steel. There is no job too small.
Have a bigger load or no way to move it
If you are on a commercial site or you have more metal than you can shift, we have options for that too. We can drop off a bin for you to fill over time. Take a look at our scrap metal bins service to find the right size for your job. For larger loads that you cannot transport, our Weigh and Pay service brings the scales to you, weighs the metal on site and pays you on the spot.
Our opening hours
Our yards are open Monday to Friday from 7:00am to 4:30pm, and Saturday from 7:00am to 11:30am. That gives Gold Coast locals plenty of time to drop in around work or on the weekend.
