When your business is getting dirty, keeping it clean is an uphill battle; but keeping the yard and shop clean is about more than just appearances. We love for customers to feel safe and welcome at our facility, leaving without flat tires or damage to their vehicles. Staying organized also creates a safer environment for our employees– when we’re not forced to trip over debris, or slip in fluids, or get tangled in piles of metal, we see fewer accidents and more productive days. 

From time to time we’ll do a massive purge, cleaning out corners of the Blue Building and stripping our steel pile down to the floor. We’ll ship out boxes that have been hanging around for too long, load up the miscellaneous metals, and give the whole floor a good going-over to ensure we remain tidy and tire-safe. 

Taking the time to sweep the floors of a scrap yard may seem silly to some, but at Research Alloys, it’s part of our culture. We aim to be more than “just a scrap yard”-- we want to be Central Ohio’s leader in scrap metal recycling services, with an environment that is welcoming, clean, and safe for all. Stop by and see us at 110 N. Sylvan Ave. in Columbus, Ohio, and see why we’re always hearing “I can’t believe how clean it is!”
