Memorial Day

River City Steel & Recycling wanted to take the time to thank the men and women whom gave the ultimate sacrifice and ensured our safety here the United States. We are ready to gear up for summer and we hope to see you sooner than later.

Electronics Recycling

River City Steel & Recycling is committed to ensuring your electronics are processed in a manner that is consistent with e-steward standards http://e-stewards.org/ . We have partnerd with ECS refining http://www.ecsrefining.com/ as our down stream vendor who is ISO 14001 and E-Steward certified. What makes us different from all electronics recycling companies in the San Antonio area is that we are a scrap yard who recycles electronics. We have learned over the past 6 months what it is to be eco-friendly. What is eco-friendly, is it keeping items out of the land fill? Well we believe that the more we can keep out of the landfill the better. We process over 200,000lbs of electronics every month and with most items containing plastics, metals, and glass we ensure that each commodity is processed packed and shipped to the best and most resourceful certified locations possible. There are companies out there that claim to be certified so be careful and do your due diligence before you make the mistake of your information getting out into the wrong hands. We are a END OF LIFE company we are not out to refurbish your items nor are we looking to make a buck by fixing your printer, copier, fax machine, computer or laptop and sending back out into the business community, you gave it to us for a reason, and that was to have it recycled not reused.
