How We Grade Aluminum Rims
We are changing the way we buy Aluminum Rims. We have been changing the grading of aluminum rims at our door and we want to make sure you are informed.
- Dirty Aluminum Rims - The rubber valves and lead wheel weights are still attached.
- Clean Aluminum Rims - The rubber valve and lead wheel weight are removed.
- Chrome Aluminum Rims - The chrome on the outside of the aluminum is coated and causes it to be a lower price.
How We Buy Clean & Dirty Brass Faucets
Rockaway Recycling is now processing and sorting dirty brass faucets differently at our scrap yard. When sorting your brass faucets, please make sure that you are checking for plastic and steel. We will be downgrading these items if they are mixed with brass.
Price Difference Electric Motors vs. Sealed Units
At Rockaway Recycling we want to make sure that you know what you are getting paid for. We make sure to separate your electric motors and sealed units due to the price difference at the scale. Usually sealed units will range from $0.05-0.10 less than electric motor scrap price because of the amount of steel on the outside.
