Can P&T Metals provide container and pick-up services for scrap metal from machine shops?
Yes, we have a complete fleet of trucks, an array of different-sized containers, and a variety of roll-off containers. We can provide an on-site survey to help with the flow process from the scrap-generating machine to the right storage container – ready for pickup.
