Our Recycling Services

Licensed Refrigerant Recovery for HVAC Professionals

NobleCore Recycling holds a Restricted Refrigerant Recoverer Licence (RRR10), allowing us to safely recover refrigerant gases during the decommissioning of air conditioning and refrigeration equipment. This ensures HVAC and refrigeration businesses remain compliant while recycling valuable metal components from RAC systems.

Reliable Copper and Brass Recycling for Plumbing Trades

Plumbing businesses generate valuable non-ferrous metals daily. NobleCore Recycling provides compliant collection and recycling of copper piping, brass fittings, and metal components—ensuring materials are properly sorted, transported, and processed through approved recycling streams while maximising recovery value.

Compliant Cable and Wiring Recycling for Electrical Contractors

Electrical contractors handle significant volumes of copper wiring and cable waste. NobleCore Recycling ensures these valuable materials are collected legally and recycled through appropriate channels—reducing worksite waste while supporting environmental compliance and material recovery standards.

EPA-Registered Tyre Transport and Automotive Recycling

NobleCore Recycling is registered with EPA Victoria for waste tyre collection and transport under approved waste codes (T140 and T141). Combined with licensed automotive air conditioning refrigerant recovery, we provide comprehensive, compliant recycling solutions for automotive and mechanical businesses.

Rural and Agricultural Scrap Metal Collection

Farming and rural properties accumulate significant metal waste—from old machinery to fencing materials. NobleCore Recycling provides compliant collection services tailored to rural access, including waste tyre transport for farm equipment, ensuring materials are recycled responsibly without the need for property owners to arrange transport.

Free Scrap Metal Pickup for Local Residents

NobleCore Recycling offers free scrap metal pickup for local residents within our service area. This community-focused service removes barriers to responsible recycling—helping households dispose of unwanted metal items without transport costs, while ensuring materials are processed compliantly and diverted from landfill.

We hold the appropriate licences and registrations to safely and legally handle materials many recyclers cannot, including refrigerant gases and waste tyres. This ensures our clients remain compliant while protecting the environment.
As a locally based business, we prioritise prompt service, flexible scheduling, and strong relationships. Our weekly community pickup rounds and trade partnerships reflect our commitment to the regions we serve.

What types of scrap metal do you collect from trade sites?
We collect the scrap metal commonly generated through HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and refrigeration work. This includes copper piping and wiring, brass fittings and valves, aluminium components, stainless steel, radiators, cabling, and decommissioned air-conditioning units. Both ferrous and non-ferrous metals are accepted. If you're unsure whether specific materials qualify, contact us before scheduling pickup.
Do you provide licensed refrigerant recovery for old air conditioning units?
Yes. NobleCore Recycling holds a Restricted Refrigerant Recoverer Licence (RRR10), which authorises us to safely recover refrigerant gases from stationary and automotive air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment during decommissioning. This service ensures compliance with national regulations and allows metal components to be recycled without releasing harmful gases. Refrigerant recovery can be coordinated alongside equipment collection.
How do trade pickups get scheduled?
Contact us with your business details, scrap type, and location. We'll confirm the collection method and timing based on your workload and site access. On-site pickup can be arranged where suitable. We work with both one-off collections and ongoing schedules, adapting to job flow and operational needs.
Do you service ongoing or repeat trade clients?
Yes. We support both one-off collections and ongoing trade recycling arrangements. Many of our clients are trade businesses with recurring scrap metal needs. Flexible scheduling can be arranged to suit your business operations and project timelines.
