Scrap metal prices can be very volatile or stay consistent for months!  In general steel pricing is set monthly based on the price we get for our scrap from the local steel mills and foundries.  Non-ferrous metal pricing (copper, aluminum, stainless steel, etc) can change daily, based on market conditions. We update our prices each time they change, so whatever is on our website is our current offers. Often customers look up general trends in pricing at kitcometals.com for comparison as well.

The scrap metal price we are able to pay is based on the price we can get from the companies we sell to. As a scrap metal processor our role in the recycling process is to accept, sort and clean metals from industry and residents and create truckloads for sale to mills, foundries and other metal consumers for producing ingots, sows and billets of metal for reuse.  

In general outside of some high nickel content stainless steel alloys, carbide and other more rare scrap metals the highest value metal that we recycle is bare brite copper scrap.  Bare brite copper wire is shiny without oxidation or copper pateen and free of it’s rubber insulation and has a hard to bend nature unlike stripped welding lead which is copper hair wire.  Other grades of metal are still very valuable and worth plenty of money but bare brite copper is often considered the top of the grade.
