From the soaring mixed-use towers of Brentwood to legacy facilities in the Big Bend industrial zone and the education campuses around BCIT, Burnaby’s rooftops host HVAC equipment that eventually reaches end-of-life. Eco Metal Recycling delivers turnkey removal, craning, and sustainable disposal of these units across Burnaby’s commercial, institutional, and light-industrial properties.

• Certified Professional (CP) option – Complex or large-scale projects may use Burnaby’s CP Program, allowing a registered architect or engineer to facilitate and streamline the permit and inspection process.
