Question:

What type of metal is a drop ceiling grid made of?

My fiancee and I are tearing down the drop ceiling in our family room. We've found someone to come take away the tiles, as they are in good condition, but we'd prefer to recycle the metal grid. Does anyone know what type of metal these grids are usually made of?

Answer:

Aluminium perhaps ?
Drop Ceiling Track
They are painted steel...not worth the time to haul to the salvage company...most salvage companies are overloaded with scrap metal at this time, many are not taking any additional metal....give them to the person who is taking the tile...he would be doing you a favor! Good luck
