Metals
Schnitzer Steel Hawaii
On Aloha Aina Community Clean-Up days, Schnitzer Steel Hawaii collects all
types of scrap metal at a location within the community. Items collected
may include appliances (refrigerators, stoves, heaters, washers, dryers,
etc.), pipes, beams, posts, cables, wires, scrap metal, cast iron, motor
blocks, car parts, and bicycles. Proceeds from the metal are donated to a
community organization. It's a great way to clean up illegal dumpsites, as
well as our own backyards and garages. See the website for a list of upcoming
clean-ups.
