FAQs

Selling Scrap Copper in Seaford: FAQs

How much is scrap copper worth per kg in Seaford?

Seaford customers get the same copper prices as everyone who sells at our Green Fields yard. Our price guide is $17.00–$21.00 per kg for bare bright and #1 copper and $7.00–$15.00 per kg for insulated copper wire and cable. Copper prices follow the London Metal Exchange (LME) copper price and the Australian dollar, so they move from week to week, and your exact price is confirmed when your copper is graded and weighed in front of you. See our copper price guide or call 08 7225 9998 for today's rate.

Where can I sell scrap copper near Seaford?

At SA Copper Scraps, 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields SA 5107. We buy scrap copper from Seaford and nearby Noarlunga, Christies Beach and Hackham Monday to Friday 7:30am to 5:00pm and Saturday 7:30am to 2:00pm. No booking is needed, and you are paid the same visit.

Is there a scrap yard or metal recycler near Seaford?

Yes. Our Green Fields yard buys and recycles scrap metal from across the City of Onkaparinga area: copper, brass, aluminium, lead, stainless steel, steel, car batteries, electric motors, radiators and catalytic converters. Every load is sorted, weighed on certified scales and sent on to be recycled into new metal.

How much is scrap metal worth in Seaford?

It depends on the metal. Copper pays the most per kg, followed by brass, then aluminium, lead and stainless steel, with steel paying the least. Prices follow the metal markets and are the same for every suburb. Our scrap metal price guides list the current range for each metal, and every load is weighed on certified scales in front of you.

How is scrap copper graded?

By how clean it is. Bare bright copper is clean, uncoated wire with no insulation or tarnish. #1 copper is clean pipe, busbar and thick wire with no solder or paint. #2 copper has solder, paint, light corrosion or fittings attached. Insulated wire and cable is priced on its copper recovery, the share of its weight that is copper. Sorting your Seaford load by grade before you come in usually gets you a better overall price.

Do you buy copper wire and cable from Seaford, and should I strip it?

Yes. We buy insulated copper cable, building wire, extension leads and stripped copper wire. Stripping thick cable turns it into bare bright or #1 copper, which is worth more per kg, but thin wire is rarely worth the time, so bring it in as insulated cable. Remove plugs, lugs and steel where you can.

Where can I sell scrap brass in Seaford?

At our Green Fields yard. Our brass price guide is $9.00–$14.00 per kg, depending on how clean it is. Bring brass taps, valves, plumbing fittings and fixtures; clean brass with the steel and plastic parts taken off earns more than mixed brass.

How do I get rid of an old air conditioner in Seaford?

Sell it for its copper. Split and ducted air conditioners contain copper pipe, copper-aluminium coils and a compressor, and we buy them at our Green Fields yard. The refrigerant gas must be recovered by a licensed technician before the unit is disconnected or brought in, so never cut the refrigerant lines yourself.

What do I need to bring to sell scrap copper?

Current photo ID, such as a driver's licence. Sort copper, brass, aluminium, cable and batteries into separate bags or tubs if you can, and take off steel or plastic parts. Gas bottles, asbestos, chemicals, fuel and ammunition are not accepted.

How will I be paid for my scrap copper?

By bank transfer, the same visit. Once your copper and other metal is graded and weighed, we confirm the price with you, check your photo ID and pay into your account before you leave.
