Benefits of Scrap Recycling
One of the reasons why Reliable Recycling has been able to served residents of Olney, Maryland, for so many years is due to our passion for the community. Recycling can benefit both the environment and the local economy.
Recycling scrap metal also decreases the amount of intrusive mining done around the planet. By recycling what we’re already mining for, we’re keeping these metals circulating. We’re also saving the planet from hazardous toxins, depletion of natural resources, and the unnecessary destruction of ecosystems.

Determining Value for Your Scrap Metal
Recycling scrap metal has a lot of benefits for both the environment and the local economy. However, the biggest perk is that it puts cash in your pocket!
We consider a few varying factors in order to determine the price for your scrap metal. The most important thing we look at is the world market value of the metal at the time you bring it in. Because the value of metal shifts often, there’s never a guaranteed price. However, if you call ahead of time and tell us what you have, we can give you a rough estimate over the phone.
We measure all scrap and materials on state-certified scales. These scales can accommodate loads as little as a pound, or as big as tractor-trailers weighing up to 100,000 pounds! They’re inspected semi-annually, guaranteeing the most accurate weight (and price) for your scrap!
Here is the current list of our rough estimates for various metals. Again, these are estimated prices and are always subject to change.
