What We Buy

Here’s What We Buy (we do not sell car parts)

Copper #1 – uncoated, clean, unalloyed copper – is the most desired type of scrap metal. This can include punchings, clippings, bus bars, pipe, and wire over 1/16” thick with no burnt or brittle pieces. #1 heavy scrap copper commands a high price.

Copper #2 – clean, unalloyed copper – is also in high demand, but unlike #1, it needs to be cleaned before recycling. Copper #2 includes oxidized or coated clippings, bus bars, punchings, clean oxidized pipe or tubing, painted and soldered copper, and a variety of wire. Copper pipe with soldered joints is also accepted as long as it is free of bronze, brass, or any other non-copper metal fittings.

Beyond #1 and #2, we accept a variety of additional copper-based products including sheet copper and downspouts.

Aluminum is one of the most commonly used metals in the world. Prized for its excellent strength to weight ratio, aluminum is found in auto rims, engine blocks, gutters, window frames, soda cans, and more.

We buy aluminum cans, rims, wheels, siding, gutters, downspouts, window and door frames, and pipe and tubing. We also buy cast aluminum, sheet aluminum, aluminum litho plate, wire, and cable.

We buy all types of steel and, like copper, steel comes in different grades. You can rest assured that the steel you bring to Decker’s Salvage will be carefully evaluated and that we will pay you the highest price possible.
