About River City Steel & Recycling

A Family Tradition, Modernized

Now owned and operated by the founder’s grandson, River City Steel & Recycling continues a legacy defined by operational efficiency and long-term partnerships. While we have scaled our facility to handle thousands of tons of metal annually, we have never lost the “neighborly” touch that has kept our customers coming back for generations. We make it a point to know our regulars by name and treat every visitor—from a homeowner with a single appliance to a massive industrial fleet—with the same respect and transparency.

Reliability for Contractors We understand that material delays or sourcing uncertainty can stall a project. We maintain a consistent, massive inventory of beams, tubing, rebar, and roofing panels. When you partner with us, you aren’t just buying metal; you’re gaining a reliable supply chain partner dedicated to keeping your project moving forward.

Industrial-Scale Capacity Our facility is equipped to handle the heavy demands of commercial, construction, and oil field scrap. With fast unloading processes and market-competitive payouts, we provide the infrastructure needed for large-scale waste management without the corporate red tape. The One-Stop Hub Advantage Logistics in San Antonio can be a headache. We solved that by becoming a dual-purpose facility. You can drop off your job site scrap at our recycling yard and load out your new structural steel in one single trip. This efficiency saves our customers fuel, time, and overhead costs every day.
