Spent brass and metal recyclers?

[Doc45]

I took a bunch of .38spl brass to Western Recycling on W. Oxford and was told they won't take it. Any one know a place? I'm sure I'm not the first to ask about this, wasn't having search luck, thanks.

[Robb]

Interested as well, hate to just toss it.

Golden recycling in golden does. Pretty good prices for it too. Or at least good enough for me. I take spent brass and aluminum there every other month.
avoid Action Recycling in arvada !!!! They are rude, no help, and all around dicks to deal with.

I'll give you $0.80 per

I'd think there'd be reloaders either here or in your locality that would take it.

Was this GOOD brass? Or worn out, split, smashed, dented, etc.? Ain't no reason to scrap any brass that's reloadable, someone will buy it!

Oh, and how much did you have? You may not have had enough to make it worth their trouble.

What is good reloadable brass(9mm and .40) worth? I have been saving it thinking I might get into reloading. Don't see it happening anytime soon. Could use some cash instead.

If it is totaly unreloadable (split, separated, etc), might as well recycle it, or sell to someone who uses brass to swage jackets. If you save up a couple of 5gallon buckets worth, next time you are in the springs, koscove metal recycling here in the springs will take it. you'll probably only get 20 to 40 dollars for it. not exactly sure of the prices right now. They also used to sell me lead and wheel weights, but suddenly stopped. not sure why. (probably because I was there once a week)

Atlas will take it.

That said so will I if its not split, I'm off work tomorrow and could pick it up. Pm me if you are interested.

Freedom Munitions gives $2.50 per pound credit for future purchases.

I take mine to Western Here in Boulder and they take it no problems, spent primers too.

I've noticed their site still says $2.5lb but that your credit varies based on scrap value, which is about $1.5lb right now. I wonder what they actually give you for credit.

I think Xtreme Bullets has a brass exchange as well.

Action recycling in Wheat Ridge on 42 and Wadsworth has taken mine.

[Jamnanc]

Atlas or the one near 58th and Washington pay the best. The others are just collection centers that take their stuff to atlas or metal and iron.

deduct the split cases or shot primer pockets. Then again scrap is scrap. My guy knows when i bring brass by, it's scrap and not for resale

Every time I have been to Action they were completely rude, not helpful, and the area is a mess. I won't go back. Buyer ... or rather seller beware. I recycle a LOT of scrap aluminum and quit going there years ago due to their crap service and absolute lack of caring that you are there.

Action has cleaned up their place, and has always been good to me.

I smash any bad cases so they won't be resold or used by another reloader.

Thanks for all the great replies, last time I looked I'm up to about 400 rounds of once fired .38spl cases, I'll check out Action.
