How Buyback works

When you bring your materials in we will weigh the different materials on state certified scales. You will be paid cash for all ferrous metals and a check issued 3 days after sale for non-ferrous material. We do require state ID for all non-ferrous sales. This is in compliance with Oregon metal laws (SB 570).

Getting the best value out of your scrap

To ensure a smooth transaction please presort your materials before coming to Far West Metals. The cleaner the material and better sorted the more money you will make for the material. Our scale buyers will help with questions but will not sort or clean your materials.
