    Non-Ferrous Metal Services

    Detroit Iron & Metal Co accepts non-ferrous metals, which do not contain iron and are not magnetic. These metals often have a higher value due to their resistance to corrosion and lighter weight, making them ideal for recycling. Common examples include aluminum, copper, brass, and stainless steel. Contact us today for current pricing and personalized quotes on your non-ferrous metal materials.
