Copper Scrap Recycling in Euclid, OH

Copper
What does copper scrap recycling in Euclid involve?
V-V Metals buys and recycles copper scrap in nearly every industrial form -- #1 and #2 copper, bare bright and insulated wire, EDM wire, tube and bus bar cut-offs, turnings, foil, powder, oxidized red powder, spills and puckable fines.
Euclid's older multi-storey plants and motor, pump and tool works throw off a lot of copper winding, bar drops and machining turnings in tight loading areas where container size matters more than container count. That is the practical reason we grade tightly instead of buying by the container.
Copper is priced off COMEX, so the money is made or lost in the grading. Our buyers separate #1 from #2, pull alloyed and clad material out of the mix, and pay each fraction on its own merit instead of averaging a whole load down to the lowest grade in the container.

How It Works
What you get on a Euclid account
Loads are weighed on a certified scale, sampled for moisture and non-metallic attachment, then graded against ISRI specifications. You get the grade breakdown on the settlement sheet, not a single lump number.
- Certified scale weights with a printed grade-by-grade settlement sheet
- Container, gaylord, drum or roll-off placement sized to your copper volume
- Segregation guidance so bare bright and #1 do not get downgraded in the box
- Scheduled or on-call pickup coordinated around your production window
- Direct shipment to copper mills, refiners and smelters -- never to another dealer

How is my copper load priced?
Loads are weighed on a certified scale, sampled for moisture and non-metallic attachment, then graded against ISRI specifications. You get the grade breakdown on the settlement sheet, not a single lump number. Copper is priced off COMEX, so the money is made or lost in the grading. Our buyers separate #1 from #2, pull alloyed and clad material out of the mix, and pay each fraction on its own merit instead of averaging a whole load down to the lowest grade in the container.
Why sell copper scrap to V-V Metals instead of a local Euclid yard?
Unlike many scrap companies, V-V Metals does not sell purchased material to other scrap dealer houses. Everything we buy goes directly to mills, foundries or smelters, so there is one margin between your dock and the end user instead of two or three. Material from Euclid ships straight to copper refiners and rod mills, which is what lets us hold a competitive number on copper.
