There are many factors involved in deciding scrap prices in Halifax and throughout the scrap industry. You can follow the commodities market prices for the particular metals you accumulate and you will see they go up and down. Still, you can check them every day but when you bring your scrap to us, at Nelson Scrap, the daily commodity price is not the price we or other scrap recyclers can pay you. When we, in turn, sell the scrap metals, it’s not the price we receive. The daily commodities prices for scrap metal is based on pure, clean and ready for remanufacturing metal. There is considerable labour hours involved in the process of bringing an iron truck axle from your garage to raw material for remanufacturing status. Still, you can use those published prices as an up or down price indicator.
Supply and demand are factors in scrap metal pricing. The greater the demand for metals in construction and manufacturing, the more Nelson Scrap can pay in Halifax scrap prices to our customers for their scrap metals. If we have a shortage of a metal in demand that will boost the prices we can pay. Even if the demand for scrap metal is low in the UK, it may be high in other countries; especially developing countries. The market is global, but the recycled scrap metals originate locally. It’s in the scrap metal collection skips we place and collect from industrial and manufacturing sites, demolitions, and the boxes of scrap metal individuals bring to us. Thousands of tonnes of metals saved from the landfills each year and recycled into new products creates jobs, boosts the economy and protects our environment.
