FAQS

What are the different grades of Copper Scrap?

Bare Bright Copper (Copper #1): This is the highest quality grade. It is clean, bright, and free of any coatings or oxidation. It is typically at least 16-gauge thick. 

Copper #2: This grade includes copper that is clean but slightly tarnished, painted, or has solder attached. 

Insulated Copper Wire: This is copper wire still wrapped in plastic insulation. 

How is copper scrap priced?

By Weight: Scrap copper is typically priced on a per-pound or per-kilogram basis. 

Purity and Grade: The value is primarily determined by the purity and grade of the copper. 

Market Fluctuations:Prices vary daily due to supply and demand, so it’s best to check current market rates at a local recycler. .

How do I identify and sort copper scrap?

Check with a magnet: Use a magnet to confirm the metal is non-ferrous. If the magnet does not stick, it is a non-ferrous metal like copper.

Examine the appearance: Clean, bright, shiny wire is typically Bare Bright. Heavily coated or corroded metal is likely a lower grade.

Remove contaminants: Higher prices are paid for cleaner, pre-sorted scrap. Remove any plastic, insulation, or other attached materials to increase the value.

Consult a professional: If you are unsure about the type or grade of your metal, a scrap yard employee can usually help analyze a sample. 

Where can I sell my Copper Scrap?

You can sell copper scrap to a scrap metal recycler or scrap yard. When you go, be prepared to show identification, as this is a legal requirement in many regions. Scrap yards often require a valid photo ID, such as a driver’s license or passport. 

Why is it important to prepare copper wire before scrapping?

Preparing copper wire before scrapping is essential because it maximizes your payout at scrap yards; clean, stripped copper fetches a higher price. Take the time to do it right and watch your profits soar!

What should I look for in a scrap yard?

Look for a reputable scrap yard that offers great customer service, competitive prices, and specializes in metal recycling. This will guarantee you get the best experience and value for your scrap.
