About Northwest Sign Recycling
Sustainable Sign Reuse, Done Right
Since 2005, Northwest Sign Recycling has helped municipalities, contractors, and sign shops across the country save money and reduce waste by giving aluminum traffic signs a second life. We specialize in hydrostripping old, weathered aluminum signs and transforming them into clean, smooth, reusable sign blanks—ready for new faces and many more years of service.
From our facility in Central Oregon, we’ve built a national reputation for quality, reliability, and service. Customers choose us not only for our proven process, but because we make sign recycling simple, cost‑effective, and worthwhile.
What We Do
Using a chemical‑free hydrostripping process, we safely remove reflective sheeting and coatings from existing aluminum signs without damaging the metal beneath. The result is a bare, smooth aluminum blank that meets specifications for reuse and refacing.
We can:
- Pick up pallets of old aluminum signs across the western and midwestern United States
- Strip and refurbish signs to a clean, reusable surface
- Return sign blanks ready for refacing
- Provide quotes for applying new sign faces and delivering signs ready for installation
For street and transportation departments, refurbishing existing signs instead of purchasing new ones can lead to significant cost savings—without compromising performance or safety.
A Practical Approach to Sustainability
Reusing aluminum signs isn’t just good for budgets—it’s environmentally responsible. Our hydrostripping process relies on water, not harsh chemicals, making it one of the greenest sign refurbishment methods available today. By extending the life of existing materials, we help reduce waste streams and lower the demand for newly manufactured aluminum.
Our Commitment
Our continued growth comes down to two simple principles:
- Deliver the highest‑quality product with responsive, professional customer service.
- Make it worthwhile and easy for customers to do business with us.
We are proud to be serving the Northwest—and customers nationwide—for more than two decades. When you work with Northwest Sign Recycling, you gain a partner focused on efficiency, sustainability, and long‑term value.
