    @@Pugjamin agreed, but for example my brother in law is a scrap man (he drives around collecting it) so his monthly loads definitely add up. When I did it myself we'd weigh in the steel daily and then the non ferrous metals monthly and we regularly had a couple of tonnes. The monthly weigh ins sometimes hit £10k+ so if you think about it, £40 ish per £200 is £800 lost for what was basically a full day of back and forth to the scrap yard

    Absolutely, it's all about economies of scale. However, the more material you have, the more time, effort and resource it'll take to handle it. Our customer with 500kg per time would have to take at least half a day to ferry that to the local scrap yard, in their own vehicles - which would have to be cleared out etc. They're simply too busy with better paying work to have to do that so Greencable is the best solution. Important to note that in many regions we cover, we pay the same as regional yards - and sometimes more.

    @@GreencableTeam I do agree that for a lot of businesses, it would make sense. For those in the scrap industry, though, probably not. There are a lot of actual scrappers I know, though, that wouldn't benefit from it, especially if they weigh other metals like steel in at the same time. Plus, I know a few guys who go mental if their money isn't in immediately, lol. It's definitely a great business, though. I genuinely hope more people use your services 😀

    Yep! We buy all types of copper cable, including those with plugs/attachments on. If you cut them off, then the cable is worth 3 times the value 👍 A lot of companies are approaching us with the desire to begin cashing in on their scrap cable, instead of letting it go for free, or in same cases - pay for it to be skipped away!

We aim to provide generally consistent, competitive rates for the materials we buy.
