.American Iron Weight Assurance
Back
For over a century, American Iron has given its customers the best value in scrap metal recycling services. We guarantee fair prices for honest weights. And to demonstrate our commitment to integrity and customer confidence, we offer Scrappy’s Weight Assurance Programs. Here are some of the ways that American Iron delivers honest and professional scrap metal recycling services:

Scale Truck

Ever wonder how much your metal scrap load weighed before it left your site? Our computerized onboard lugger scale can show you your weight to within 200 lbs. We’ll issue you a weight receipt – right on the spot. Your final settlement will be based upon the actual weight as measured on a State Certified scale at one of American Iron’s plants.

Certified Scales

Our computerized scales are officially certified by State inspectors to be accurate with a plus/minus margin of 20 pounds. That’s an error of only one-tenth of 1% on a 10 ton load.

Independent Verification

American Iron is so confident of the accuracy of our scales that we will honor any request for third-party verification of weights.

Consignment Tracking

Our computerized consignment system creates a complete record of every transaction you make. This allows you to efficiently monitor your own scrap generation and document specific shipments. American Iron only makes payment by check, and can issue a record of all your financial settlements. To see a sample American Iron computerized settlement statement, click here.
