What Affects Scrap Rates?

Scrap prices are dynamic. Here are the key factors that drive price movements.

Global Commodity Market

International prices of metals like copper, aluminium, and steel directly influence local scrap rates every day.

Local Demand & Supply

When recycling mills and factories increase production, demand for scrap goes up, pushing rates higher.

Quality & Grade

Clean, sorted, and graded scrap always fetches a premium over mixed or contaminated material.

Quantity / Volume

Bulk sellers — factories, offices, housing societies — generally get better per-kg rates than small quantities.

Currency & Fuel Prices

A weak rupee raises import costs and boosts local scrap demand. Fuel prices affect logistics and final payout.

Season & Festive Demand

Construction and manufacturing peak seasons increase metal scrap demand. Festive season often spikes paper rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about scrap rates and our pickup service.

We update our scrap rates every morning at 9:00 AM based on live commodity market data, mill demand, and local supply conditions. Rates may also change intra-day for metals like copper.

The rates shown are indicative market rates. Final rates are confirmed at the time of pickup after weighing and quality assessment. We always aim to match or beat listed rates.

Copper is a premium non-ferrous metal with high industrial demand — especially in electrical wiring, electronics, and plumbing. Its global scarcity and demand make it significantly more valuable than iron or steel.

To maximise your payout: (1) Sort your scrap by type before pickup, (2) Keep it dry and clean, (3) Sell in larger quantities, and (4) Check rates daily and book when rates are favourable.

We accept pickups from as little as 5 kg for household customers. For corporate or industrial pickups, the minimum is generally 50 kg. Contact us for bulk rates.

Yes! For all pickups we provide a digital receipt. For e-waste specifically, we issue a certified recycling certificate which is useful for corporate CSR and compliance reporting.
