American Scrap Co. is Iowa's best computer recycling option! You need to ask yourself something. Did I pay for the equipment I'm about to recycle? Most of us probably did and I doubt it was very cheap. Now ask yourself something else, should I give it away for free or even worse pay to have it taken away?

Our newest service is aimed towards a forward thinking world. In a world becoming more and more computerized, the necessity for a proper way to dispose of computerized or electronic scrap grows and grows. Keeping our environment clean is a good idea in the first place, but now at American Scrap Co. you can be paid for your good deeds.

There are many companies and individuals who claim to be companies in the scrap business. Many of them just aren't the type that are pleasant to deal with. I appreciate that American Scrap Company operates in a professional manner and has responsible and respectful employees. We have had an ongoing relationship with American Scrap for nearly 10 years and have never had anything but great interactions. I would not hesitate to recommend them to another business looking for an e-waste solution.

The upsides:
It's a nice little place to visit to drop off small loads of scrap. No intimidatingly large yard to search for staff or where to drop off stuff.
Good for a person who can't stand throwing the planet's recyclable materials away in the trash any more.
(Rusty roofing nails don't belong in the trash, those nails deserve to be recycled.)
Its great that they don't demand 200+ lbs of materials before paying out.
Even small loads of 1lb is considered.
The parking lot was fine. There was no overcrowding.

The most awesome place around, family run, great bunch of guys they get you in and out quickly if you know what you are doing and have your metals separated properly, makes the job easy on both ends, but will say they are very helpful and patient if you don't have it separated. Thanks for always being so GREAT! !

I'll tell anyone who asks, American Scrap is the place to take your "E-Scrap" (new word to me). Based on past experience, I thought my metal junk wasn't worth a visit to a junkyard. Thanks to Dustin and the rest of the dock crew I have new respect for this business and its honest, hardworking and friendly staff. It's hard work, but you are providing an essential service to our planet. Thanks!
