Copper is our main focus and pays more per kilo than any other common scrap metal, so it is worth sorting before you leave Pooraka. With so many trades and workshops across the northern suburbs, most of the copper we see from Pooraka is electrical cable offcuts, stripped wire and copper pipe left over from plumbing jobs.
We buy every grade of scrap copper from Pooraka 5095: bare bright wire, #1 clean pipe and busbar, #2 soldered or painted copper, copper-aluminium radiators and coils, and electric motors with copper windings, plus copper wire and cable, brass and the copper inside old air conditioners. Each grade is weighed on certified scales in front of you and paid the same visit.
Homes, trades and businesses across Pooraka and the rest of the City of Salisbury area sell their copper at our yard at 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields. No booking is needed.
Bare bright, #1 and #2 copper are graded separately, so every grade in your Pooraka load gets its own price.
