Aluminium recycling in Auckland is driven by the construction sector — window and door replacements, cladding removal, and building demolitions all generate significant aluminium scrap. We accept all aluminium grades from Auckland residential and commercial sources.
Why Recycle Aluminium?
Aluminium recycling uses only 5% of the energy required to produce new aluminium from bauxite. Auckland's building industry generates thousands of tonnes of aluminium scrap annually — recycling this material significantly reduces Auckland's construction waste footprint.
Aluminium Recycling Tips
- Separate window frames from glass before delivery
- Remove rubber seals from aluminium extrusions if possible
- Keep cast aluminium (engine blocks) separate from extrusions
- Aluminium cans — crush to reduce volume before bringing in
