What Is Metal Recycling?
Metal recycling is a critical component of resource management. It reduces the demand for raw material extraction and helps minimize landfill waste. TMT Metal Recyclers processes metal from various sources, including construction sites, manufacturing facilities, automotive shops, and private households.
Metal recycling involves several stages:
-
Collection and sorting of materials to separate metals by type, composition, and condition for accurate classification.
-
Processing and preparation for reuse to remove contaminants and prepare metals for industrial recovery.
-
Distribution to mills and refineries where processed metals are melted and reintroduced into regulated manufacturing supply chains.
Our facility in Oshawa is equipped to manage both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as vehicle metal parts, in compliance with provincial regulations.
Ferrous Materials Recycling
Ferrous metals are iron-based and magnetic. These materials are commonly found in industrial machinery, automotive parts, and structural steel components.
We accept and process a variety of ferrous items, including:
-
Steel beams and rebar.
-
Cast iron components.
-
Appliances such as stoves and washers.
-
Scrap machinery and equipment frames.
Ferrous materials are shredded and prepared for shipment to steel mills, where they are melted down and reused in new manufacturing. Our team strives to ensure that each load is processed efficiently and weighed accurately.

Non-ferrous Materials Recycling
Non-ferrous metals do not contain iron and are typically more corrosion-resistant, making them valuable in various industrial and consumer applications.
Materials accepted include:
-
Copper: Wires, plumbing pipes, and roofing sheets
-
Aluminum: Window frames, siding, and beverage cans
-
Brass and bronze: Fixtures, fittings, and decorative items
-
Stainless steel: Kitchen equipment, sinks, and specialized tools
-
Lead and zinc: Batteries, castings, and coatings.
Due to their higher value and demand, we maintain strict grading and sorting protocols to ensure proper valuation and downstream processing. Contact us today to learn more about our non-ferrous materials recycling services.
Auto Recycling
Our TMT Metal Recyclers team also processes metal components from end-of-life vehicles. We accept:
-
Steel vehicle frames and panels.
-
Aluminum engine blocks and rims.
-
Copper wiring and electrical harnesses.
We do not handle complete vehicles or fluid disposal, but work closely with registered auto dismantlers who provide compliant pre-processing. Once non-metallic parts and hazardous materials are stripped, vehicle metals are sorted and prepared for auto recycling.

Our Metal Recycling Process
Our structured metal recycling process in Oshawa is developed to ensure clarity, accountability, and environmental responsibility at every stage. Each step is designed to support safe handling, accurate material assessment, and consistent operational efficiency.
Drop-off
Materials are received at our facility through organized intake procedures that support safe unloading, controlled handling, and systematic documentation. Designated receiving areas and on-site guidance help maintain orderly traffic flow and ensure materials are directed to appropriate processing zones without delays.
Weighing & Transparent Pricing
Calibrated weighing systems are used to determine precise material weight, ensuring accurate measurement and consistency. Pricing is then calculated based on prevailing market values, material grade, and quality.
Metal Inspection & Sorting
Each load is carefully examined to identify material composition, quality, and condition. Metals are separated by type to support accurate classification, minimize cross-contamination, and improve processing efficiency.
Processing & Responsible Distribution
Metals are processed using established methods to prepare them for reuse and industrial recovery. Materials are then directed to approved downstream facilities that operate in compliance with regulatory standards, supporting responsible recycling practices and environmentally controlled material distribution.
