Got scrap metal taking up valuable space? Whether you’re running a construction site, managing a factory, or just clearing out the shed, choosing the right way to turn that metal into cash matters. At Action Metal Recyclers, we offer two options: our scrap metal bins and our mobile Weigh & Pay service. But which one’s going to work best for you? Let’s break it down.
What Are Scrap Metal Bins All About?
Think of our scrap metal bins as your own personal metal collection point. We drop off a bin at your site, you fill it up when it suits you, and we collect it when you’re ready. Simple as that. With bins ranging from compact 3-tonne N-Bins to massive 10-tonne D-Bins, we’ve got the right size for every job across Brisbane, Gold Coast, Toowoomba, and our other Queensland locations.
Our scrap metal bins are perfect if you’re generating copper, aluminium, steel, or any other scrap regularly. Construction sites love our hook bins for demolition scrap and reo, whilst manufacturers prefer skip bins for their off-cuts and punchings. The best part? The bins are free to hire (terms and conditions apply), and there’s no lock-in contract.
How Does Weigh & Pay Work?
Our Weigh & Pay service is like having a mobile scrap yard rock up to your door. Our trucks come equipped with cranes, certified scales, and everything needed to handle your brass fittings, catalytic converters, radiators, or whatever metal you’ve got lying around.
Our uniformed team does all the heavy lifting. They’ll weigh your scrap right in front of you, so you know exactly what you’re getting paid for. Cash, cheque, or EFT, you choose how you want to be paid, and it happens on the spot. No waiting, no worries.
Which Service Suits You Best?
Go for scrap metal bins if you:
- Run a construction site, factory, or workshop that generates scrap daily or weekly
- Have space to store a bin safely on-site
- Want to maximise your returns by collecting larger volumes
- Prefer to work at your own pace without scheduling collections
- Need a solution for ongoing commercial clean ups
Choose Weigh & Pay if you:
- Have a one-off pile of scrap that needs removing now
- Don’t have room for a bin on your property
- Want instant cash for your scrap metal
- Have mixed metals like copper wire, stainless steel, and lead batteries that need sorting
- Can’t be bothered with the manual handling
- Are doing a big cleanout or closing down a site
