Starting from the basic: Purchase a truck or van that is large enough to transport scrap metal pieces,
Set up an area for metal recycling,
Start making arrangements to collect scrap,
Advertise in the local newspaper, online sources like Craigslist
Check metal prices regularly to be aware of what to charge and what to pay for scrap
Talk to your county or town about necessary licenses and permits
Speak to an attorney about how to start a scrap metal business that is legal and above board.
These are the few basic steps you must always keep in mind.
