Scrap Metal Pickup

We Pick It Up.
It Gets Recycled Right.

Scrap metal is one of the most recyclable materials on the planet — but getting it off your property and to a certified facility takes a truck, the right crew and the logistics to do it properly. That's where we come in.

Whether you have a single old refrigerator, a pile of copper pipe from a renovation, a yard full of automotive parts or structural steel left over from a demolition — The Wreckin' Haul picks it up, hauls it away and routes every load to certified metal recyclers. Nothing goes to landfill that doesn't have to.

What We Collect

Every Type of Metal.
All Recycled.

We accept ferrous and non-ferrous metals in any condition — rusted, painted, mixed or clean. Here's what we handle most.

Appliances & White Goods

Old appliances are mostly steel and copper — too good for the landfill. We pick them up from wherever they sit and get the metal recycled properly.

  • Refrigerators and freezers
  • Washing machines and dryers
  • Stoves, ovens and ranges
  • Dishwashers and water heaters
  • Air conditioning units

Automotive & Machinery

Old car parts, non-running vehicles, engines and industrial machinery with metal content. We handle both the haul and the recycling coordination.

  • Engine blocks and transmissions
  • Rims, rotors and brake components
  • Old farm and industrial equipment
  • Non-running vehicle parts
  • Metal tanks and containers

Structural & Construction Metal

Post-demolition steel, leftover framing and structural materials from construction or renovation projects. Large loads handled with the right crew size.

  • Steel beams and I-beams
  • Rebar and wire mesh
  • Metal roofing and gutters
  • Garage doors and door frames
  • Fencing, chain-link and gates

Copper, Aluminum & Non-Ferrous

Higher-value metals that absolutely should not end up in a landfill. We collect copper pipe, aluminum framing, brass fixtures and mixed non-ferrous loads.

  • Copper pipe and wire
  • Aluminum framing and sheet metal

Not everything fits a neat category. Old tools, miscellaneous hardware, garden equipment, exercise machines with metal frames — if it's mostly metal, we'll collect it.

  • Hand tools and power tool casings
  • Bicycles and metal exercise equipment
  • Metal outdoor furniture and grills
  • Old safes and metal filing cabinets

FAQ

Scrap Metal Pickup
Questions

What people ask most before booking a scrap metal collection in North County San Diego.

Do you pay for scrap metal pickup?
We provide a hauling and recycling service — the focus is getting the metal off your property and to a certified recycler. For small loads we charge a standard pickup fee. For very large commercial loads of high-value metals like copper or aluminum, call us to discuss — volume and type affect the conversation. We're upfront about pricing before we show up.
Do you pick up a single appliance or do you need a minimum load?
We'll pick up a single refrigerator, washing machine or appliance. There's a minimum pickup fee for small loads, but no minimum item count required to book. Call us and we'll give you an honest quote based on what you have.
Do you remove metal from hard-to-access locations like backyards or tight spaces?
Yes. We handle metal removal from backyards, side yards, tight garage spaces and anywhere else it's sitting. Let us know the access situation when you book and we'll come prepared with the right equipment to get it out safely.
Can you pick up metal mixed in with other junk?
Yes. We do full junk removal that includes metal as part of a mixed load — furniture, appliances, metal parts and general household junk all loaded together. If your project involves both metal and non-metal items, a standard junk removal appointment covers everything in one trip.
Where does the scrap metal go after pickup?
Everything goes to certified metal recycling facilities. Ferrous metals go to steel recyclers. Non-ferrous metals — copper, aluminum, brass — go to specialty recyclers who recover and reuse the material. We don't dump recyclable metal in a general landfill.
Can you handle large structural steel or post-demolition metal loads?
Yes. We handle structural steel, rebar, large I-beams and post-demolition metal loads from construction and renovation sites. For large commercial or industrial volumes, call us at (760) 421-5331 to scope the job so we bring the right crew and equipment.
