That pile of scrap metal in your yard isn't going anywhere on its own, and honestly, most hauling companies either charge you an arm and a leg or never show up when they say they will.
Look, I've been doing this work in Philadelphia for over three decades now, and I can't tell you how many times I've pulled up to a property in Fishtown or South Philly and seen metal sitting there for months because the owner just didn't know who to call. Just last week, I helped a contractor over near Aramingo Avenue who had copper piping, old radiators, and steel beams taking up half his lot. He'd called three other companies. Nobody showed. We were there the next day.
Here's the thing about scrap metal removal in Philadelphia. It's not just about loading up a truck and driving away. You need someone who knows the difference between what's valuable and what's junk, who understands local recycling regulations, and who actually respects your property while they're working. My family started All Around Removal back in 1995, and we've built our reputation on showing up when we say we will and charging fair prices that don't change once we get there.
Whether you're dealing with construction debris, old appliances, or industrial scrap, we handle it all. We also offer complete debris removal services for larger projects throughout the Philadelphia area. In my experience, people just want someone reliable who won't waste their time. That's what we do every single day

We take pretty much any type of scrap metal you've got. Copper wiring, aluminum siding, steel beams, old appliances, brass fixtures, you name it. A lot of folks don't realize that water heaters, furnaces, and even old chain link fences have value. We've hauled everything from commercial HVAC units in Center City to old car parts in Northeast Philly.
The stuff we see most often? Copper pipes from renovation projects, aluminum gutters, steel from demolished structures, and appliances that stopped working years ago. Some metals are worth more than others, and honestly, we'll let you know upfront if there's any value in what you're getting rid of. We're not here to nickel and dime you. Fair is fair.
The process is straightforward. You call us or fill out the contact form on our website. We ask a few questions about what you've got and where it's located. Sometimes we can give you a price right over the phone, but for bigger jobs, we'll come out and take a look. No charge for estimates.
Once we agree on a price, we schedule a time that works for you. Could be same day if you need it fast. We show up with the right equipment, load everything ourselves, and haul it away. You don't lift a finger. We handle all the heavy lifting, and we're careful not to damage your property in the process. After 30 years doing this, you learn how to maneuver around tight spaces and narrow driveways.

We are committed to environmental responsibility. By prioritizing recycling and donating usable items, we minimize landfill waste and promote sustainability. Our eco-friendly disposal methods reflect our dedication to preserving the environment for future generations.
Understanding the value of your time, we offer flexible scheduling, including same-day and next-day services. Our efficient team arrives on time, ready to handle your junk removal or demolition needs swiftly and effectively, ensuring your space is cleared without delay.
Here's what sets us apart. We're local, which means something in this city. When you call, you're talking to someone who knows Philadelphia streets, understands the permit requirements for larger hauls, and won't get lost trying to find your property in Manayunk or Port Richmond.
We also don't play games with pricing. The quote we give you is what you pay. No surprise fees when we show up. No extra charges because the job took longer than expected. That's just not how we operate.
Being family owned matters too. This is our livelihood and our reputation. Every job we do reflects on our name, so we treat your property like it's our own. You know, we've had customers call us back years later for different projects because they remember how we handled the first job.
We started this business in 1995, back when Philly looked a lot different than it does now. My family has watched neighborhoods transform, seen development boom in areas like Northern Liberties and Brewerytown, and we've been part of that growth. Every renovation project, every demolition job, every property cleanup creates scrap metal that needs to go somewhere. That's where we come in.
Over the years, we've worked with everyone. Contractors doing gut rehabs in Queen Village, property managers dealing with tenant turnovers, homeowners cleaning out garages in the Northeast. Industrial clients near the Navy Yard who need regular pickups. The work changes, but our approach doesn't.
Being local isn't just a marketing line for us. It means we know which streets have parking restrictions, where we need permits for larger vehicles, and how to navigate Philadelphia's neighborhoods without causing problems. We've loaded scrap from tight rowhome backyards in Passyunk Square and handled big commercial jobs near the sports complex down in South Philly.
It also means we're accountable. You might see our trucks around town. Your neighbor might have used us last year. Word travels fast in Philadelphia, and we've built everything on doing right by people. Fair pricing, showing up on time, and treating folks with respect goes a long way in this city.
Look, dealing with scrap metal shouldn't be complicated. You've got stuff that needs to go, and we've got the trucks and experience to make it happen. Simple as that.
Give us a call at 267-936-2457 and let's talk about what you've got. We can usually give you a ballpark price right over the phone, or we'll schedule a time to come out and take a look. No pressure, no obligation. Just honest answers about what the job will cost and when we can get it done.
We serve all of Philadelphia and the surrounding areas. From Chestnut Hill to the airport, Roxborough to Fishtown, we cover it all. If you're in the greater Philadelphia area and need scrap metal removed, chances are we can help.
