For the average homeowner, junk is worthless and something to be removed, yet the reality is, the stuff you throw away is worth money.
If you have a domestic appliance that has finally given up the ghost and the cost of repair is too high, the chances are it is worth something. The current trend for environmental conservation has given the recycling industry a real boost, and there are many scrap metal businesses that buy second hand items from householders, and the metals are recycled.
Depleting Resources
Our planet provides us with everything, with all metals contained in ore that is under the ground, which means there is a limited supply. For centuries, man has intensively mined the many valuable resources, which can never be replaced. This makes it even more important to focus on recycling, and hopefully, we can lighten the tremendous load we place on Mother Earth by re-using existing materials.
What is Recyclable?
Many of the household appliances we use today can be recycled, and might include the following:
- Car Batteries
- PVC copper wire
- Air Conditioning systems
- Radiators
- Bottles and Cans
- Car parts (engine and bodywork)

Educate the Family
One idea is to hold a family meeting, which is a good time to explain that many of the items we usually throw in the bin, can actually be recycled. Then you can make a list of all the different things that can be put to one side, and every few months, just drop it into our yard. You could always put the money toward the next family holiday, and with everyone focused on recycling, you are doing your bit to promote greener practices at home.
If we actually stop and think about how we can reduce the negative impact we have on the environment, there are many ways to achieve this. Scrap metal is a valuable resource, so before you throw it away, contact us and we will recycle it for you, and you will receive the best rates in cash.
