Acme Iron and Metal is the largest scrap metal recycler in New Mexico. A family owned business, we’re known for the honest, straightforward service provided by our 100+ employees.  Over the years, Acme has grown and acquired or merged with other metal recyclers in the area. Today, there are five full-service recycling locations paying top dollar for your metal scrap: Acme Iron and Metal, Albuquerque Metal Recycling, Ace Metals, ABQ Metal Recycling and Rio Rancho Recycling.  The Acme family of businesses is fully licensed and is in full compliance with state and federal laws concerning ferrous and non-ferrous metal commodities. We are also very mindful of our surroundings, making sure that our operations make as little impact on the environment as possible. In fact, metal recycling is one of the top “green” industries in the country.
