They have gone downhill fast. I took in over 1000 lbs of scrap metal weight when I seen they weighed me at 700 lbs I asked , since I knew it was much higher. They said they took 300lbs off. Sayng I had that much plastic. Maybe 20-30 lbs of plastic. They told me they always reduce the weightt. If thats true then they have neen rippong me off for years.. Don't trust them .

Well, I started as a Langley customer because Henry Langley was a customer of mine. I solely used them for 13 years. Things began getting shady at the scale a year ago. I felt weights were being shorted. Materials were being taken off the cart before I could see the weights. Weights were being yelled at brian the scale guy by the mean broad, instead of brian looking at the scale and calculating weights himself. I know I was shorted by 30 pounds at one time, but nobody was willing to address it. I gave them one more chance, learning brian was no longer there. I was only given 3.45/# for bare bright, while KC Iron and Metal is paying $4/# for the same. Sorry David, you've lost another customer.

From the first guy I spoke with on the phone, then the young lady behind the counter, to the guys out in the yard, everyone was helpful. I didn't know what the hell I was doing and they guided me through the process. A big time operation, but willing to help out the little guy with a small load. I recommend Langley Recycling for your metal scrapping needs.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022

Why is recycling batteries important?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022

When batteries are deposited into landfill, various chemicals are released into surrounding soil, air and waterways. These chemicals can include lead, zinc, lithium and mercury and are dangerous to our environment, wildlife and even fellow humans. Recycling batteries makes sure this leakage of chemicals does not contaminate our surroundings and therefore prevents further harm to our environment. Thousands of tonnes of emissions could be prevented each year if everyone recycled their batteries.

Is recycling scrap wire sustainable?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022
Jason Pool | Aug 11, 2022

I will put it this way, it is better than just throwing it away. It gets remanufactured and so therefore is keeping a need for mining to a minimum. Also, keeps it out of waste dumps in which it would just sit for years upon years because it doesn't decompose well. Bottom line, recycle any and all metals that you can, it's better for the Earth and it's environmental health.

Will I need to strip my scrap wire prior to bringing it in?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022

It’s not necessary, but we won’t complain if you do! Although removing the plastic portion will result in less overall weight, you may receive more for your scrap because it will require less work on our end to get to the valuable copper underneath. By leaving the plastic on, you can be sure that the waste will be properly disposed of rather than tossed away with your trash at home.

What types of wires are recyclable?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022

Scrap wire recycling is more common than you may think! Many of the wires and cables you use each day contain the vital copper that we love to accept, including things like phone and power cords, home appliance and equipment wires, computer-related cables like your ethernet or speaker cords, and so much more. Regardless of the purpose it served during its lifetime, your recyclable wire can be appraised here at Langley Recycling, no matter how much or how little you bring to the table. If you’re ever unsure if your wire is recyclable, feel free to bring it in for an evaluation and we will let you know while on-site

What is the difference between wires and cables, and are both recyclable?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Aug 4, 2022

There is a big difference between your standard equipment wires and power cords and cables, but all are recyclable through us. While a wire is a singular line utilizing the power of your electrical outlets for one sole purpose, you can consider your cables as bundles of wires all grouped together in one insulated sheath to provide the higher amount of voltage necessary to operate your equipment. In most wires, cables, and cords, you’ll find that the electrical wires are coated in a shielding or insulation made of copper; this is to protect the electricity running through the wire and protect you from potential electrocution. When you hear the phrase “live wire,” that means a wire has somehow lost its insulation; this copper is the main reason wire is such a highly prized recyclable scrap.

What happens if cast iron is taken to landfill?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022

Like any metal, you should avoid taking cast iron to landfill and make an extra effort to recycle it. This is because when metal is thrown into landfill, its chemicals will start spilling into the surrounding soil, starting to pollute the air, waterways and so on. This will then lead to global warming via the production of greenhouses gases which are harmful to our environment. That’s why, at Langley Recycling, we make it easy (and financially worth your while) to recycle your metals.

Is brass recycling sustainable?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022

Absolutely! Brass has the ability to be infinitely recycled over and over again, so bringing your brass scrap to Langley Recycling to be melted down and reused is one of the most environmentally sustainable things you can do. With brass recycling, you are putting materials like copper and zinc back into the supply chain, thus creating less of a demand for the mining and creation of new brass alloys. When you recycle your brass scrap, you are keeping the standard cost of brass low for the industry utilizing it, but you are also putting money back into your pocket and into small, local businesses like our own. This not only helps you, but it also puts more money into your local economy and there is nothing quite as sustainable as that.

Is all brass recyclable?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022

Generally – yes, but a piece’s eligibility for recycling depends on a number of factors with the first being safety. Many ammunition shells/casings are made of a form of brass that is typically recyclable, however with handling weapons ammunition, there is always the risk that a live round may be included in your scrap pile. While we are happy to accept many kinds of casings and shells, we may turn away this as acceptable scrap for safety reasons. The other main reason why a piece of brass may not be recyclable is due to its level of contamination. Certain home equipment, such as an old radiator, may not be considered eligible because it contains more of the lesser materials than the valuable copper we are looking for, making it hard or impossible to recover during the recycling process.

What is the difference between Red Brass and Yellow Brass?

Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022
Langley Recycling Inc. | Feb 26, 2022

Oftentimes, the brass you most commonly see is Yellow Brass; this type is an alloy of both copper and zinc and its iconic color can be seen in instruments like the trumpet or saxophone. Yellow Brass is most abundant kind of scrap brass because it is less expensive for most factories to manufacture. When recycled, Yellow Brass requires extra attention to purify it of any less valuable metals used in the original alloy process.  Red Brass, on the other hand, is technically considered a type of bronze because it is an alloy composed of mainly copper, with varying amounts of tin and zinc, as well. Originally, this material was used to make weapons and their ammunition and was more frequently called by its more recognizable name: Gunmetal. While Red Brass is still used today, its more often found in plumbing fixtures and pipes than firearms.
