For your fabrication, construction, or demolition business in Phoenix, does it really matter what happens to your metal scrap? And do you really need a company to handle that aspect of your projects?

Industrial metal recycling in Arizona is quickly gaining in popularity, and rightfully so. Here are just a few of the reasons why companies across Arizona are partnering with Davis Metals for the collection and processing of their metal scrap:

  1. Reduction in overhead cost

    Recycling your metal with Davis allows you to save money on waste disposal fees. It also helps your company prevent regulatory costs related to environmental or improper disposal fines.

  2. Extra revenue

    The metal that you recycle will generate money for your business. Why pay to have your scrap metal discarded, when you can get paid to have it recycled with Davis?

  3. We handle the big stuff

    For machinery collection and disposal in Phoenix, large-scale demolition projects, aircraft recycling in Phoenix, automotive manufacturing, and construction projects, you need a reliable and efficient company to handle large amounts of metal waste. Many scrapyards simply don’t have the equipment or expertise to handle large-scale recycling. That’s just some of what sets Davis Metals apart; our large-capacity equipment and knowledgeable staff allow us to handle jobs of all sizes.

  4. The environment and the industrial metal market will appreciate you

    When you recycle your scrap metal with Davis, you reduce the need for the mining of new materials. In turn, this reduces the impact of metal fabrication on the environment by reducing pollution and environmental degradation. And because recycling metal uses less energy, less workforce effort, and fewer resources, it allows the overall price of metal to lower.

  5. Your customers will appreciate you

    Today’s clients are increasingly aware of their own environmental impact, and are likely to support businesses that practice environmental precautions. They’ll also appreciate the savings you’re able to pass on to them through your metal recycling efforts.

Best of all, Davis Metals works with you. Customer satisfaction is our key priority, and we know that there’s no one-size-fits-all formula when it comes to industrial metal recycling in Phoenix. Here are just a few of the ways we ensure that our clients are satisfied, every time:

  • We offer a wide variety of roll offs and dumpsters, and will deliver and pick up on your schedule
  • Our team is available to answer questions about metal recycling in Phoenix, and offer problem solving, advice, and solutions for your project needs

For all of these reasons, and more, recycling your industrial metal in Phoenix with Davis Metals is a smart choice for your company. A partnership with us can have a positive impact on your business’ budget, image, sense of integrity, and revenue. Let us show you why recycling with Davis Metals really will benefit your business.

We love this spooky season for all the fun festivities and food it brings. And while we enjoy a good haunted house jump-scare as much as anyone, there are some real, and preventable, dangers to our environment that are taking place every day, and are anything BUT fun. 

At Davis Metals, we do what we do because we’re committed to ensuring that the industrial metal we receive is recycled in responsible and sustainable methods. Despite our best efforts, however, we all need to be doing more. Here is one of the REAL fears that keep us passionate about metal recycling in Phoenix.

Rapidly-filling landfills

Consider that, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, the average American generates about 4.4 pounds of trash per day. Now think about the amount of waste that is generated by industrial metal companies in comparison. When construction, fabrication, processing, or demolition companies choose to allow their metal waste to the landfill, they are fast-forwarding their community towards a situation of having no viable place to dump waste. And considering that seven states in our country are predicted to run out of landfill space in the next 4-5 years, the possibility of this for Arizona could turn into a sad reality.

The United States currently has 2000-3000 active landfills, and over 10,000 closed landfills. When a landfill reaches its capacity, it must be “capped,” allowing the tons of methane-producing of material to start the slow process of decomposing, likely leaking toxic chemicals into the surrounding lands and water supply.

When you choose to partner with Davis Metals, you’re not only making a choice that:

  • Saves you money by getting paid to recycle your metal
  • Makes metal processing easy for you
  • Allows you full-service dumpster and/or roll-off service
  • Provides you access to experts in the field who can help you problem-solve, give advice, and answer questions
  • Supports a thriving, family-owned business in the Phoenix area, thereby feeding the local economy in the community where you live

You’re also allowing your industrial metal business in Arizona to operate in a thoughtful, sustainable, eco-friendly way. Recycling metal with Davis Metals allows the preservation of natural resources by reducing the need for virgin ore mining. It also helps preserve rapidly-dwindling landfill space, and prevents any chemicals within your metal items from leaching into the ground. 

Also, your clients will notice, and care. Today’s customer base cares deeply about supporting businesses that practice sustainable operations and that carry a small carbon footprint. In fact, a recent report from Business Wire says that 85% of customers have become “greener” with their buying habits, and it’s now more critical than ever that businesses adhere to sustainability initiatives to appeal to customers.

And today’s employees are no different. According to an employee engagement study by Cone Communications, 74% of employees report greater job satisfaction when given the opportunity to make a positive impact on social and environmental issues. And 70% report they’d be more loyal to a company that allows them to contribute to these issues.

]]> Know What’s Scary? NOT Recycling Your Metal with Davis Metals! https://davismetals.com/know-whats-scary-not-recycling-your-metal-with-davis-metals/ Mon, 06 Nov 2023 20:32:51 +0000 https://davismetals.com/?p=4873

It’s the spooky season around here, and the time of year to think about scary things. Ghosts, werewolves, and certain creepy clowns aside, what really makes us uneasy is thinking about those who work with metal in Arizona and are NOT recycling it. It’s not just that we encourage metal recycling because it’s our business, although we do feel passionate about running a high-quality metal recycling business in Phoenix. We can appreciate, and dread, the negative ramifications that not recycling metal with Davis Metals can have.

Here are a few reasons why we care so much about metal recycling in Arizona:

  • We’re looking at frighteningly full landfills

    According to data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, only about 17% of recyclable materials in Arizona was actually being recycled at the time of the study. This low consumer recycling rate means that Arizona landfill space is decreasing at a rapid rate. Figure tons of unrecycled, non-compostable metal into the mix, and we could be looking at a very serious situation.

  • It’s freakishly easier on natural resources

    When comparing the environmental impact of mining virgin ore versus reusing/recycling metal, the truth is shocking: Recycling metal utilizes significantly less energy, leaves a smaller carbon footprint, results in fewer greenhouse gas emissions, and leads to less pollution to surrounding areas. 

  • It’s so simple, it’s scary

    We make it really easy for you to recycle your appliances, vehicles, scrap metal, wheels, bikes, and more. Want to bring your metal to our Phoenix scrapyard? Great! Our skilled team of experts will process your load and generate a payment for you.  Want Davis to pick your metal up for you? We have lots of options for that. Our roll-off dumpsters come in a variety of sizes to accommodate any job. You simply tell us when you want it, and we’ll deliver the dumpster you need. And then, you let us know when you’re done with it and we’ll pick it up. 

  • High unemployment rates give us nightmares

    Scrap metal recycling is a labor-intensive industry. By recycling your metal at Davis Metals, you’re helping to create new jobs right in your greater Phoenix community. Recycling in general is responsible for about 1.17 new jobs for every 1000 tons of recycled material, and metal recycling is the largest contributor towards that total. There are workers needed for collection, sorting, transportation, equipment operators, facility staff, sales and marketing, environmental compliance, and advertising, just to name a few

At our family-run business, we are fortunate to feel so passionate about what we do. For over 60 years Davis Metals has been a Phoenix area staple, and our expert staff and efficient processes are just part of what helps us keep our status of the very best. While there’s nothing scary about Davis Metals, we DO want you to feel a little frightened at the prospect of our city and state with no metal recycling in place. When you let us recycle your unwanted metal, we’ll do our part to protect our surrounding environment while giving you efficient, polite, and competent service; the first time, and every time.
