History

Crossing the Atlantic from Eastern Europe on the quest for a better life in Canada , Sam Rochwerg arrived in Hamilton in 1917. Beginning as a small scrap metal peddler, Sam excelled in the industry, and in 1933, Sam's Auto Wrecking was established. Focusing on honest business practices, and a vast knowledge of the industry, Sam's Auto Wrecking flourished. The company matured and in 1981 moved to its present location and became Wentworth Metal Recycling.
