Scrap metal prices in Padiham fluctuate daily. There are so many different metals, and various classifications within each category. For instance, copper has three classifications and each is valued differently. If you are familiar with the categories you can better understand how each ferrous and non-ferrous metal is priced. The best way to check the price being paid for any given metal on any given day is to call us at Nelson Scrap. If you have questions about how we classify metals, we will be happy to explain. Of course, you can always drop by with your scrap and we will determine the value and pay you for it then and there.
For those new to scrap selling be aware that it is illegal for Nelson Scrap to pay you in cash. In Padiham, scrap metal prices are paid by cheque or direct deposit into your bank account. Everyone must set up an account with us on the first visit with 2 forms of identification, which takes only minutes. For those with large quantities of scrap we can drop off a skip and arrange a one off or regular pick-ups. Market fluctuations are managed by booking prices over a one month period. We have been in business for 30 years at Nelson Scrap and that can only happen when you treat your customers fairly.
As with most things, supply and demand guides the fluctuations of scrap metal prices in Padiham. Some metals like aluminium have a fairly steady demand and therefore prices tend to remain steadier than some others. How you prepare the metals for sale can influence price. For instance, electric motors sealed in steel that we find in appliances will garner more if it is separated from the appliance. Then the rest of the metals from the appliance are priced separately. At Nelson Scrap, we want you to sell your scrap metal to us. Contact Nelson Scrap or come by with any questions or concerns because we strive to make each transaction as easy as possible for you. We like to think of our business as one where everybody wins and goes home happy.
