Processing/Equipment
Once the purchased material arrives at GMR, it is graded by using handheld x-ray analyzers to determine exact composition. After material is sorted, it is processed through various methods including baling, cutting, shearing, and breaking. Material is packaged to meet exact specifications required by consumers. Finally, material is shipped to mills and smelters all over the world. GMR ships on average 1500 loads of recyclable material monthly, which equals sixty million pounds of recyclable material diverted from landfills every month. That is 720 million pounds every year. Due to the large volume GMR buys and sells, they work off of very small margins with customers. This ensures the best price in the region, as well as attracts customers from other areas of the country.
GMR owns a large fleet of trucks, equipment, and modern machinery to create the finest customer service, as well as to efficiently manage daily operations.
