However, it quickly becomes a problem when copper scrap is not recycled properly contributing to environmental waste.

Turn Your Copper Waste Into Value

Copper — a valuable metal that can be reused multiple times without the loss of quality. By properly recycling copper scrap, energy consumption is reduced and the demand for mining new copper is reduced. Recycled copper can be manufactured into:

  • Plumbing pipes and fittings
  • Electrical wiring and cables
  • Circuit boards and connectors
  • Machinery, construction and automotive parts

Why Copper Scrap Should Never go to Landfill

Copper is a highly durable metal that should never end up in a landfill – as it is a metal that can be used endlessly even after recycling. Thrown copper scrap can be thought of as one of the biggest opportunity losses in the metal industry.

FAQs

Copper Recycling FAQs

Common questions about copper recycling, pricing, and pickup across Melbourne

What types of copper do you accept for recycling in Melbourne?

We accept all grades and forms of copper including bare bright copper wire, #1 and #2 copper, insulated copper wire, copper pipes, roofing copper, copper tubing, electrical components, and mixed copper loads. Stripped or not — bring it in.

Does copper wire need to be stripped before you accept it?

No stripping is required. We accept both bare and insulated copper wire. Bare wire typically earns a higher rate since the insulation is already removed, but we'll weigh and price both fairly.

How is the copper scrap price calculated?

Prices are based on live copper market rates updated daily. Your copper is weighed on our certified weighbridge, graded by type and purity, and you receive a transparent breakdown of the calculation before payment.

Do you pick up copper scrap from construction sites across Melbourne?

Yes. We offer pickup from homes, construction sites, commercial demolitions, and industrial facilities anywhere across Melbourne and surrounding areas. No minimum weight required for pickup.
