Aluminum Scrap Processing in Solon, OH

Victor Metals Inc., operating as V-V Metals, has bought industrial scrap out of Northeast Ohio since 1986. We serve the Cochran Road and Solon Industrial Parkway precision-manufacturing cluster and roughly thirty minutes south of the yard via I-271.

Aluminum

What does aluminum scrap processing in Solon involve?

V-V Metals processes aluminum scrap by alloy family rather than as one commodity: 6061 and 2024 clips and solids, 7050 cast turnings, 356 slag, dross and spills, aluminum grindings and foil.

Solon is one of the densest precision-manufacturing zones in Northeast Ohio, and high-volume CNC work there generates steady, clean, single-alloy turnings that should never be sold as mixed metal. That is the practical reason we grade tightly instead of buying by the container.

Alloy identity drives aluminum value more than tonnage does. Mixing 6061 into a cast turnings box costs real money, so we set up separate containers per alloy at the machine and verify identity on receipt before a load is blended.

What aluminum do you buy in Solon?

We buy clips, solids, turnings, grindings, dross, slag, spills and foil generated across the Cochran Road and Solon Industrial Parkway precision-manufacturing cluster, in quantities from a single drum up to steady roll-off volume.

  • 6061 clips, extrusion drops and 2024 solids
  • 7050 and general cast aluminum turnings
  • 356 slag, 356 dross and 356 spills
  • Aluminum grindings and machining fines
  • Aluminum foil, litho sheet and clean sheet clips
  • Mixed low-copper and painted aluminum streams

How It Works

What you get on a Solon account

Turnings are checked for free oil and fines content, dross and slag are sampled for recoverable metallic yield, and each alloy is settled against its own published index rather than a blanket mixed-aluminum price.

  • Alloy-segregated containers staged at the machine or the melt deck
  • Metallic-yield sampling on dross, slag and spill material before settlement
  • Free-oil and fines assessment on turnings so deductions are transparent
  • Bulk or scheduled pickup for high-volume extrusion and casting operations
  • Direct movement to secondary aluminum smelters and remelt operations

How is my aluminum load priced?

Turnings are checked for free oil and fines content, dross and slag are sampled for recoverable metallic yield, and each alloy is settled against its own published index rather than a blanket mixed-aluminum price. Alloy identity drives aluminum value more than tonnage does. Mixing 6061 into a cast turnings box costs real money, so we set up separate containers per alloy at the machine and verify identity on receipt before a load is blended.

Why sell aluminum scrap to V-V Metals instead of a local Solon 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 Solon ships straight to secondary aluminum smelters and remelters, which is what lets us hold a competitive number on aluminum.
