Price disclaimer
Last updated 16 October 2026
We publish scrap rates and give photo estimates to help you understand what scrap is worth. Please read how to use them.
Rates are a guide
Our published rates are market rates set by our team from named sources, or medians of completed deals or asking prices, or guide ranges, as labelled on each rate. They describe typical clean, sorted material and can be out of date by the time you sell. See how we calculate rates.
Estimates are not offers
A photo estimate is produced automatically from your photos and today's rates. It can be wrong about the material, the grade or the weight. It is not an offer to buy and no one is bound by it.
The price is what you agree
The price of a deal is the price per kg and weight that the buyer and seller agree after weighing. Scrap Exchange is not a party to that agreement and doesn't guarantee any price.
No financial advice
Nothing on Scrap Exchange is financial or investment advice. Don't rely on our rates for trading decisions.
