Industrial Recycling Services at Our St. Louis Facility
From our St. Louis location, we manage industrial scrap and recycling programs for facilities across the St. Louis metro area and surrounding industrial corridors. Services are for operations with layered workflows, multiple departments and ever-growing production demands.
Industrial Scrap Processing & Materials Management
We work with facilities to standardize how scrap is generated, separated, processed and everything else necessary. Clear material pathways improve recovery outcomes while reducing confusion and inefficiencies on the plant floor.
Waste Collection & Program Coordination
Collection services are coordinated to improve execution across shifts and departments. Container strategies, pickup timing, and service frequency are predictable, so you always have full control and you won't have to worry about conflicting schedules.
Recycling Programs Aligned With Long-Term Planning
Rather than reactive solutions, our recycling programs align with operational planning and long-term performance goals.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Who typically manages the recycling program on the facility side?
Programs are usually coordinated with operations, facilities or environmental managers, depending on how materials management is structured internally.
How involved is Shapiro Metals once a program is established?
We remain actively involved, monitoring performance and adjusting processes as needed.
Can recycling programs be implemented without changing existing workflows?
Yes, since our strategy is to make programs that integrate into current processes rather than forcing operational redesigns.
How do you handle facilities with multiple scrap generation points?
Material flows are mapped so that each generation point feeds into an organized, centralized recovery system.
What happens when responsibilities shift between departments?
We clarify roles and maintain consistency so recycling doesn't break down during internal transitions.
Is there a single point of accountability on your side?
Facilities work with a consistent contact who oversees service coordination and program continuity.
How do programs stay effective over time?
We make sure programs stay effective over time by periodic reviews and performance tracking based on operational data.
