Frequently Asked Questions

  • What counts as industrial scrap metal?

    Industrial scrap metal typically includes structural steel, roofing iron, fabrication off-cuts, machinery parts, reinforcing bar and mixed metal waste generated by construction, demolition or manufacturing activities. Both ferrous (magnetic) and non-ferrous metals like copper, aluminium and brass fall under this category, and most recyclers accept a wide range of grades and conditions.

  • Can construction and demolition sites arrange bulk scrap collection?

    Yes, many recyclers offer bulk collection services, including skip bins and roll-on roll-off bins, specifically designed for construction and demolition waste. This allows sites to manage scrap continuously throughout a project rather than accumulating material, helping keep work areas clear, safe and compliant with site management requirements.

  • How is industrial scrap metal pricing determined?

    Pricing is generally based on metal type, weight and current market rates, with ferrous and non-ferrous metals valued differently. Bulk or ongoing commercial arrangements may also attract negotiated rates. It's best to confirm current pricing directly, as market values for scrap metal can fluctuate regularly.
