Norm and Joanne Six, their son Greg, and son-in-law Jeff Woofter founded Six Recycling in 1990 and bought the assets of Berman Iron & Metal, a yard with about 40 years in the East Liverpool area. The company is still family run, with six family members on a staff of 20. The Maple Street yard buys recyclable metal and sells recycled metal and used tires. It specializes in demolishing metal and partly metal structures and pays by the pound for recovered material, or drops off a container and picks it up when the project ends. A wire chopping machine strips insulation from fine copper wire, and the yard picks up broken down vehicles. It is open weekdays and closed weekends.
