Scrap Metal

Metal items such as broken equipment, shelving, motors, wire and pipe must be kept separate from the regular trash.

Scrap metal can be dropped of at the Centennial Field recycling area in the designated "Metal" box.

If your department has large amounts of scrap metal to be picked up, please submit a Physical Plant Service Request.

Scrap metal is delivered to a scrap yard in northern Vermont where it is separated into various ferrous and non-ferrous metals for recycling.

DO RECYCLE:

• Clean ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Steel pipe, aluminum, copper, wire, etc
• Empty drums
• Metal shelving, rods, rebar, etc.

DO NOT RECYCLE AS SCRAP METAL

• Computers, Monitors and Electronic waste
• Liquids, paints or oils
• Appliances
