About Us
Gardner Metal Recycling, originally Gardner Iron and Metal, was incorporated in Austin, Texas, in 1954. We are a family owned and operated metal recycling facility. Our company buys, prepares, and resells metals that are ultimately melted and reused in the world.

Our company has recycled millions of pounds of metal materials over our long history in Austin. Knowing that we contribute daily to the betterment of the environment gives all of us a great deal of satisfaction.

As for the business, there is money to be made in the recycling of metals. As a result of world supply and demand, all metals in their various forms have a value and can be resold. Our expertise in this business, and knowledge of metals, enable us to work with a diverse group of scrap metal producers. Some of our commercial clientele include electricians, plumbers, demolition companies, construction companies, metal fabricators, as well as many others.
 
We invite you to come and visit our facilities, Gardner Metal Recycling and Southside Recycling. We boast the highest quality customer service from our trained staff, a unique understanding of all types of metals, and the cleanest scrap facilities in Austin not to mention the most competitive prices on all metals
