Frequently Asked Questions

Our company can handle small and large volumes of materials. Our staff works around the clock, reflecting our commitment to please our customers continuously. We have dozens of employees in our locations available to pick up converters in all states across the US and Canada, as well as to accept incoming converter loads at our warehouse.

Catalytic converter values are determined by the amount of precious metals they contain. Pricing is based on current market fluctuations of platinum, palladium, and rhodium (PGM-s).

Our laboratory in Kenbridge, Virginia, processes catalytic converters individually to precisely measure their metal content. No two converters are the same – factors such as vehicle mileage, make, model, and year of manufacture all affect the value of the precious metals content in the converter.
In addition, we send our converters for assays. Assays allow for the converters to go through a refining process in order to determine an average value. Final pricing is based on these verified averages, ensuring transparency and fair market value.

Alpha Recycling | Shredding | Refining Group works on a system based on Volume. Unlike most buyers on the market today who downgrade converters to make a profit, Alpha works on a small profit margin. Being that we work on volume, customer satisfaction is our number one priority; we do not want to lose customers, and so we provide the most honest grading at the best prices. Our buyers do not receive a commission based on individual pieces, only based on the quantity of cats, eliminating the need to downgrade converters for a quick profit. We develop long-term relationships with companies with which we do business.

Due to the volume of converters that we buy, we can profit based on quantity.
