At Canada Iron and Metal, we have been committed to providing sustainable recycling solutions for over 80 years. Our story begins in 1937, when our founder, Leon, opened the doors to our Toronto-based scrap metal recycling facility. Since then, we have remained dedicated to sustainability, safety, and customer satisfaction.
Our Services
Our facility is equipped to handle a wide range of materials, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, electronics, and hazardous waste. We accept a variety of materials, including scrap cars, appliances, and machinery, and process them into high-quality recyclable materials.
Ferrous Metal Recycling
Our ferrous metal recycling facility is one of the oldest and most efficient in Toronto. We operate with the latest technology and equipment, including Liebherr material handling machines and CAT forklifts. Our experienced sorters and graders work around the clock to ensure that our customers receive accurate and fair payment for their scrap metal.
Non-Ferrous Metal Recycling
We also specialize in non-ferrous metal recycling, accepting a wide range of materials, including copper, brass, and aluminum. Our experienced team sorts and processes these materials, recovering valuable metals and materials for reuse and recycling.
Electronic Waste Recycling
Our state-of-the-art facilities are designed to handle electronic waste, including computers, televisions, and other electronic devices. We responsibly process these materials, recovering valuable components and precious metals, and ensuring that hazardous materials are disposed of safely and legally.
Bin Services
We offer a range of bin services to meet the needs of our customers. From 14 to 50 yard containers, we provide flexible and efficient solutions for businesses, manufacturers, and construction sites. Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional service and ensuring that our customers' metal recycling needs are met.
History of Steel Recycling
Steel recycling has a long history, dating back over 150 years. Today, steel recycling is more important than ever, with the recycling process requiring significantly less energy and resources than traditional steel production methods.
Benefits of Recycling Ferrous Scrap Metal
Recycling ferrous scrap metal has numerous benefits, including saving energy, reducing landfill waste, and conserving natural resources. Every ton of steel made from scrap steel saves approximately 115 kg of iron ore, 63 kg of coal, and 5.3 kg of limestone.
Our Commitment
At Canada Iron and Metal, we are committed to sustainability, safety, and customer satisfaction. We are proud members of the recycling industry and work closely with steel mills and foundries to ensure that the metal we receive is sent via the most direct route to be recycled and remade into new steel products.
Fairness and Pricing
Many customers have expressed satisfaction with the prices they receive for their scrap metal and e-waste. Some have noted that the prices are fair and they have never had a problem with the company. They appreciate the ease of doing business with Canada Iron and Metal, including the simple process of dropping off their materials and receiving a quick payment.
Chaotic and Unpleasant Experience
On the other hand, one customer had a negative experience with the company. They found the "drop off and drive back out, around and back in again" system to be chaotic and inefficient. They also reported feeling taken advantage of, believing that they were not getting a fair market value for their scrap metal.

Numerous customers have praised the friendly and professional service they received at Canada Iron and Metal. They appreciate the personal attention and helpfulness of the staff, who seem to go above and beyond to ensure a smooth and efficient experience.
