Three-year old company bags contract to broker metal from Kennedy Space Center.
Pasco Iron & Metal and its in-house brokerage company, Green Tree Recycling, has successfully brokered more than 4,000 gross tons of metal from Florida’s largest-ever and most historic demolition project: The dismantling of Kennedy Space Center’s launch pad 39B, which helped to launch 53 space shuttle missions.
Pasco Iron & Metal and Green Tree Recycling agreed to purchase all scrap metal from the extensive dismantling task, which is being overseen by LVI Environmental Services, Inc. The material, which filled more than 400 truckloads, is being shipped directly from the job site in Cape Canaveral to mills for processing.
The large job is significant given that Pasco Iron & Metal and Green Tree Recycling have only been in operation since 2008 and 2007, respectively. “We’re very pleased to have played such a large role in this historic project,” said Pasco Iron & Metal and Green Tree Recycling CEO Matthew Goldman. “Unlike other scrap metal processors, our in-house brokerage services allow us to work with slimmer margins and to be more on top of unfolding markets.”
