Founded in 1898, today Alter Trading - a
privately owned, fourth generation company - is one of the largest
scrap processors in the country, with trading
offices and processing plants across the central United States.
Alter Trading provides a direct supply of quality products,
sourced both in America and abroad, to consumers in the United
States and throughout the world.
And while over the course of our history, we've moved from horse-drawn equipment to equipment of thousands of horsepower, our basic mission has not changed:
"We deliver quality
products and
exceptional service
to our customers
and suppliers."
