What we accept

Clean vs “dirty” aluminum

The key distinction. A door or window frame stripped of its steel screws, glass, and plastic is clean aluminum. The same piece with screws, steel hardware, or inserts becomes ferrous (“dirty”) aluminum, which pays noticeably less. An aluminum bike frame, for example, is worth more once the steel components are removed.

Extrusions

Molded pure-aluminum profiles (6063 type): door and window frames, railings, industrial profiles. One of the best-paying aluminum grades, but with very little tolerance for contamination.

Rims (mags)

Car alloy wheels are a separate, well-paying grade.

Mixed aluminum, sheet, and cast

Aluminum items of all kinds with no contaminants: sheet, aluminum panels, castings, cookware. Aluminum-copper radiators are graded separately and pay better, see our copper page as well.

Preparation tips

  • ✓Remove steel screws and hardware when it's easy: the piece moves from the ferrous grade to clean.
  • ✓Keep extrusions (door/window frames) separate from the rest, they sell for more on their own.
  • ✓Strip glass, plastic, and weatherstripping from window frames.
  • ✓A magnet is your best tool: anything that sticks isn't aluminum.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between clean and dirty aluminum? ▾
Clean aluminum is free of steel, plastic, and other materials. As soon as a piece contains screws, fasteners, or steel parts, it's graded as ferrous aluminum and pays less. Removing hardware when it's simple directly raises the value.
Do you buy aluminum rims (mags)? ▾
Yes, car alloy wheels are a distinct grade we buy by weight. Call us for preparation details before your visit.
Are aluminum window frames accepted? ▾
Yes. Stripped of glass and steel hardware, they're paid at the extrusion grade, one of aluminum's best prices. With hardware still attached, they're graded as ferrous aluminum.
Do you accept aluminum cans? ▾
Contact us at (450) 645-5555 before coming in for cans and small household items, we'll confirm how they're graded based on volume.
