SA Copper Scraps is a drive-in scrap yard at 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields SA 5107, in Adelaide’s northern suburbs. We are open Monday to Friday 7:30am–5:00pm and Saturday 7:30am–2:00pm (closed Sunday), no booking needed. Bring copper, brass, aluminium, steel, cable, batteries and motors: every grade is weighed in front of you on certified scales and paid the same visit. Bring current photo ID.
We are open six days a week, so most people can get to us on a weekday after work or on a Saturday morning. You don’t need an appointment: drive in, park at the scales and we will grade your metal with you.
Please arrive at least 30 minutes before closing so there is time to sort, weigh and pay for your load. Saturday mornings are popular with households and weekend clean-outs, so arriving early means less waiting. We are closed on South Australian public holidays unless we have advertised otherwise; if in doubt, ring 08 7225 9998.

Copper is what we buy most, but one trip clears the lot: we take every common scrap metal. Pick a metal for its grades and guide rate.
Bare bright, #1 and #2 copper, pipe, busbar and offcuts. Our main metal and the best payer.
Insulated cable and stripped wire, priced on the copper inside.
Car and truck batteries, electric motors, compressors, radiators, lead and catalytic converters.
Selling mostly copper? Read about copper recycling in Adelaide at our yard, or what scrap aluminium is worth if you have window frames or extrusion.
These are guide rates from our copper and scrap metal prices page. The rate you are paid is confirmed when your metal is graded and weighed in front of you, and it depends on the grade and how clean the metal is.
Not sure which grade you have? See copper scrap grades explained or why prices differ between yards.
