Timpson Trading Corporation prides itself on a long family legacy dating back to 1936. Anthony Scottino, the current owners' Father and Grandfather, began working in this industry at the age of twelve. With much forethought and vision, he purchased a small building on Timpson Place. Timpson Salvage was born. It was then that he began recycling rags, paper and cardboard. Later metal recycling was added to the business and additional adjoining real estate was purchased to accommodate the expanding business. Today Timpson Trading Corporation remains a staple in the South Bronx. We now exclusively recycle metal and provide our customers with a streamlined means of recycling all grades of metal. We pride ourselves on continuing the tradition and integrity that was instilled in us years ago. As we enter out third generation of ownership, we are honored to provide our community with a greener, healthier place to live.

Common non-ferrous metals include copper, brass, aluminum and stainless steel and can be found in electrical wiring, electric motors, transmissions(Drained of fluids), batteries (car, truck, etc), vehicle rims, vehicle engine parts, catalytic converters, aluminum condensers, aluminum copper radiators, and car radiators.
