Recycling
We accept both small and large quantities of metal from homes, businesses, construction sites, farms, and factories. For larger quantities, we can arrange pickup, or you can visit us at our two locations in Dunedin and Oamaru.
A fresh, sustainable future
Reduce
Every bit of scrap metal that’s reused means less waste in our landfills and a cleaner future for everyone. At Everitt’s, we help businesses and everyday people clear out unwanted metal responsibly, whether it’s from a home clean-up, a construction site, or an industrial operation.
We make it easy and rewarding by paying you for your unwanted metal.
Whether it’s a few pieces or truckloads, we take it off your hands and ensure it’s handled the right way.
Recycle
Recycling isn’t just about getting rid of scrap, it’s about making sure it keeps working for the future. At Everitts, we take all kinds of metal and send it to manufacturers who transform it into new materials, helping industries stay sustainable.
From small drop-offs to large-scale industrial loads, we make it easy for everyone to be part of the recycling process. Every piece of metal reused means less strain on natural resources and a better outcome for the environment.
Reuse
Metal is built to last, and just because something is no longer needed doesn’t mean it’s lost its value. At Everitts, we make sure good materials don’t go to waste by preparing them for reuse in everything from new construction to everyday products.
Whether you’re a homeowner, a tradie, or a large business, recycling with us means you’re helping reduce landfill waste and support a circular economy, where materials are repurposed again and again instead of being thrown away.
