Preparation for recycling metals

  • Sort the metals to identify what is recyclable and not
  • Remove any paper and plastic labels
  • Clean the metals to remove any remaining food and drink residue, dirt, or debris
  • Drain out any liquids or contents and dry the metals
  • Flatten the metals to save space as much as possible

What happens after recycling?

After collection, the metals are cleaned, sorted, and melted down in specialized facilities. The molten metal is then poured into molds to form metal ingots, which serve as raw materials for new products. These ingots are reused in manufacturing industries to create items like appliances, construction materials, and packaging, helping reduce the need for mining and conserve natural resources.
