Scrap Metal Removal in Balitmore, Maryland is a load-and-haul service that clears ferrous and non-ferrous metal from homes, garages, basements and job sites, then routes it to licensed recyclers instead of a landfill. We take washers, dryers, water heaters, furnaces, cast-iron tubs, rebar, chain-link fencing, gutters, shelving, pipe and sheet metal. Our crew arrives with a dump truck, hand truck and appliance hand truck, cuts oversized pieces down with a reciprocating saw or sledgehammer, and carries everything out under OSHA safety compliance standards.
Rowhouse living drives most of the calls we get. Tight alleys in Federal Hill and Hampden make dragging a dead water heater to the curb a two-person job at best, and Baltimore City DPW disposal regulations do not allow metal appliances in regular trash pickup. Add a flooded basement cleanup or an estate cleanout, and suddenly you have 400 to 1,200 pounds of metal sitting in the way. That is where scrap metal disposal Balitmore homeowners trust comes in, and where same-day scrap metal removal Balitmore Maryland keeps a project moving.
Every job includes loading, cutting oversized pieces, carrying metal out of basements and upstairs rooms, and routing it to a licensed recycler. You point, we haul. Add-ons like full garage cleanouts or construction debris removal are quoted separately.
Our two-person crew loads everything by hand, hand truck or appliance hand truck. We carry metal up basement stairs, out of attics and through rowhouse doors. A single appliance takes about 15 minutes; a full basement of metal runs two to three hours.
Furnaces, cast-iron tubs and long pipe sections often will not fit through a doorway. We use a reciprocating saw, sledgehammer and pry bar to break them down to size, then carry the pieces out. No extra charge for cutting.
Fridges, freezers and AC units contain refrigerant that must be recovered before recycling. We handle EPA-compliant recovery on every cooling appliance, so your old unit does not leak into the air or sit in a city lot.
We separate steel, iron, aluminum and copper and drop each load with a licensed metal recycling Balitmore partner. Appliances with electronics go through R2 e-waste recycling certification channels. You get a clean space and a documented disposal path.
After loading, we sweep the area and do a final walkthrough with you. If anything was missed, we grab it. You get a photo of the cleared space and an invoice at the quoted flat rate.
Tell us what you have, roughly how much, and where it sits. A single appliance, a garage full of pipe, or a contractor's pile of rebar all get a fast quote. We ask about stairs, alley access and whether the metal is inside or curbside, then give you a flat price.
We book a two-hour arrival window, not a vague all-day slot. Most Balitmore jobs are scheduled within four hours of the call, and we text you when the truck is 20 minutes out. If you need 24/7 scrap metal pickup Balitmore for a flooded basement or a weekend cleanout, ask and we will find a slot.
Our crew lead walks the space with you for two to three minutes. We confirm what is metal, what is not, and flag anything that needs special handling, like a propane tank or a fridge with refrigerant. You approve the price, and we start loading immediately.
We bring the dump truck, hand truck, furniture dolly, pry bar and reciprocating saw. Oversized items get cut down to fit doorways, and heavy pieces ride on straps. A single appliance takes about 15 minutes; a full garage cleanout of metal runs two to three hours.

✓ Verified“I manage four rowhouses and turnover always leaves appliances behind. Called on a Tuesday, they cleared three fridges, two stoves and a pile of pipe from two units by Thursday. They handled the refrigerant recovery paperwork for me, which saved me a headache with the city. Pricing was fair and they texted photos when done.”
