Calbag Metals Company

Warren Rosenfeld is the fourth generation in the family to lead the scrap metal recycling company co-founded by his great-grandfather in 1907. A West Coast leader in recycling metal, Calbag has over 5,000 customers from whom we purchase scrap and hundreds of Pacific Rim customers who buy the metal.

Calbag Metals Company has a 100 year history in recycling metal. Founded in Portland Oregon in 1907 as Northwest Junk, we started recycling and reselling used burlap sacks near the beginning of the 20th century. Food and fruit from Hood River and further out transported in burlap sacks and material to Portland and repaired sacks and shipped back to farmers. We were 'green' before 'green' existed.
