If you have scrap metal sitting around the yard, the shed or a worksite, Action Metal Recyclers in Toowoomba makes it easy to turn it into cash. This guide is for Toowoomba locals, tradies, farmers and small businesses who want to know where to go, when we are open and what to bring. We have been buying and exporting scrap metal across Queensland for over 50 years.
Where to find our Toowoomba scrap metal yard
Our Toowoomba yard is at 519 Boundary Road, Toowoomba QLD 4350. You can call the team on (07) 4634 0444 before you head in if you have any questions. We take loads of all sizes, from a single kilo up to 100 tonnes, so it does not matter whether you are clearing out the garage or running a commercial site.
Toowoomba scrap yard opening hours and 24/7 drop off
We are open Monday to Friday from 7:00am to 4:30pm, and Saturday from 7:00am to 11:30am. If those times do not suit, the Toowoomba site has a 24/7 drop off point at the front for afterhours clean ups, so you can drop your scrap when it works for you.
What to bring when selling scrap metal in Toowoomba
You do not need to book a time. Just turn up during business hours with your scrap metal and a valid driver’s licence or photo ID. The ID is required before we can pay you. Sort your metals where you can, as separated loads are quicker to weigh and process.
What scrap metals we buy in Toowoomba
We buy a wide range of metals, including copper, brass, aluminium, steel, stainless steel, lead, radiators and catalytic converters. Scrap turns up in more places than people expect, like in old fridges, window frames, roofing iron, wiring, pipes and machinery. If you are not sure what you have, our what we buy page has the full list, or you can read up on copper, brass, and other scrap metals before you come in.
How you get paid cash for scrap metal
We pay cash on the spot for your scrap, and we can also pay by cheque or EFT. Every load is photographed and weighed automatically, so you get a clear and honest record of what you brought in. To see more about selling your metal, have a look at our cash for scrap page.
Scrap metal bins and commercial clean ups for bigger loads
If you have a large or ongoing job, we can drop a scrap metal bin at your site and collect it when it is full. For collections paid on the spot, our Weigh and Pay service brings the scales to you.
Prohibited and dangerous scrap metal items
For safety reasons, some dangerous goods are not accepted. If you are unsure about an item, check with the yard office before you load up.
