What Is Scrap Metal?
Scrap metal is waste metal or metal that is left over. This can range from waste aluminum cans to metal rods and sheets. Have you just upgraded the plumbing in your house? Then you will have old copper pipes lying around. In a nutshell, all the metallic junk that accumulates in your house constitutes scrap metal.
All the items made from any of the following metals can be classified under scrap:
1) Aluminum – Think of waste soda cans, old bike frames, car parts, gaming consoles. All have significant amount of aluminum in them.
2) Copper – Old electrical appliances, old pipes from a plumbing upgrade lying around your home will most likely be made of copper.
3) Brass – A lot of the old objects are likely to be made of brass. For example, old candle stands, bed frames, door frames and door knockers. If it looks like something you have is made of gold, and you know for sure that it isn’t, rest assured its made of brass.
4) Stainless Steel – Stainless steel is an alloy. This means that it is a combination of a number of other metals such as nickel and chromium among other metals. This metal is most likely to be found in kitchen appliances, kitchen equipment and white goods.

Why Do We Need To Dispose Off Scrap Metal Correctly?
Now that we know what constitutes scrap metal, lets look at the top reasons why correct disposal of these items is important:
1) Can be used again and again
There is a very important difference between waste items and scrap items. Scrap metal items hold monetary value and can be reused and recycled. In fact, the metal recycling industry is huge in America and contributes a lot towards saving energy by recycling and upcycling metal parts.
2) Not picked up by standard trash picking facilities
Scrap metal is also one of those items that are almost never picked up by the municipal trash collecting services. So, it is always a good idea to consult with professionals about scrap metal removal and disposal.
3) Scrap metal does not break down
You also must never just throw scrap metal in the garbage because if it reaches the landfill, it just continues to be there. Without breaking down, ever! This makes disposing off scrap metal correctly essential for the betterment of our environment.
4) Having scrap metal at home is hazardous
It is never a good idea to have scrap at home, no matter how well you think you have stored it. If you do not have the necessary experience and the right tools, moving scrap metal parts can be very dangerous. And it can hurt you and damage your house. This point becomes even more important if you have kids or pets at home.
