Your community leader in metals recycling since 1912.

Our Mission

ABC Recycling is Western Canada’s largest processor of recyclable metal. We are proud to be powered by metal and guided by our inner strength since 1912. Our mission is to strengthen the lives of our people, community and partners by taking today’s recyclable metal and turning it into tomorrow’s resources.

As a key value-added service provider in the metals recycling business, our customers are both local and international. We purchase scrap locally, process and package it, and sell globally to our customers’ specifications. Our proximity to the Pacific Ocean gives access to all world markets. We ship ferrous metals to foundries and mills around the world to be turned into new products.
