Scrap metal pickup in Campbelltown, and what comes out of it

Campbelltown is twelve minutes from the yard and is the suburb where we see the most knock-down rebuild metal.

Campbelltown gives its name to the council that also covers Paradise, Athelstone, Newton, Hectorville, Rostrevor, Tranmere and part of Magill. Thorndon Park, just over the boundary, is the council's principal park and holds the original reservoir -- the first in South Australia built to pipe water to Adelaide, constructed between 1857 and 1860 after the Torrens became too polluted to drink. It was taken out of service in 1977 and opened for public recreation in 1986. Gorge Road skirts the park just past Newton.

Campbelltown has seen some of the strongest price growth and rebuilding activity in the north-east, and for us that means whole houses rather than single appliances. A knock-down gives up galvanised roof sheeting, steel framing and guttering, a copper hot water cylinder, copper pipe through the walls, brass fittings and often an old wall furnace and air conditioner in the same week. If your block is being redeveloped, ring us before the demolition contractor prices the job -- the metal has a value and it should be coming off what you pay, not going into someone else's truck.

On a demolition the best time for us to come is while the house is coming down, not after, because once roof sheeting and copper pipe go into a mixed pile the sort gets worse and so does your price. Get us in before the demolition contractor prices the job and the metal value can come off what you pay. Driveways here are generally wide enough for the truck, which is not true everywhere on this run.

We come out along Lower North East Road, so Campbelltown generally gets done in the same trip as Newton or Dernancourt.

Frequently asked questions - Campbelltown

My Campbelltown house is being knocked down. What happens to the metal?

Ask before you sign the demolition contract. There is real value in the roof, the guttering, the hot water cylinder and the copper pipe, and if we take it, that value should be coming back to you instead of being bundled into the contractor's margin.

Can you come while the demolition is happening?

Yes, and that is usually the best time. We can take the metal as it comes off rather than digging it back out of a mixed pile, which means a cleaner sort and a better price for you.

When should I call you about a Campbelltown knock-down?

Before you sign the demolition contract. The roof sheeting, guttering, copper pipe and cylinder in an older house carry real value, and if we take the metal that value can come off what you pay rather than going into the contractor's margin. Second best is while the house is coming down, not after.

Can you work alongside my Campbelltown demolition contractor?

Yes, and it usually saves everyone money. We take the metal as it comes off and they take the rest, which means a cleaner sort for us and less tonnage in their bins for you. Just let them know we are coming so nobody is surprised on the day.

What is the biggest thing you will take out of Campbelltown?

Whole house worth of metal, which here is a realistic question rather than a hypothetical. Roof sheeting, guttering, downpipes, the cylinder, the pipe out of the walls, the wall furnace and the air conditioner can all come out of one knock-down, and that is a multi-trip job we will schedule properly.
