Turn cable offcuts, drum ends, strip-out cable and bright copper into money between jobs. We grade cable on its copper content with you, weigh every grade in front of you and pay you before you leave.
SA Copper Scraps buys cable offcuts, drum ends, strip-out cable, bright copper wire and busbar from electricians at 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields. Cable is priced on how much copper it holds, so heavy power cable pays more than thin data cable. No booking needed; paid by bank transfer the same visit.
Utes, vans, trailers and rigid trucks fit in the yard.
Each metal weighed separately on certified scales.
Mon–Fri 7:30am–5:00pm, Sat 7:30am–2:00pm.
Every purchase recorded, as SA law requires.
Every job leaves cable offcuts, drum ends and strip-out cable, and most of it is copper by weight once you get into the heavier sizes. Kept sorted on site, it adds up quickly.
We grade cable by type with you: heavy power cable, building wire, flex and data cable each carry different amounts of copper. Bright stripped wire and busbar are paid at copper rates. Electricians from Mawson Lakes, Salisbury and across the north drop in between jobs.
Sort by type on the job and each grade is paid at its own rate.
Insulated power cable, TPS and building wire from new work.
Lower copper content, so keep it in its own bag.
The more copper in the cable, the higher the rate. Keep these apart on site.
| Material | Typical source | Graded as |
|---|---|---|
| Bright stripped wire | Heavy cable stripped clean | Bare bright copper |
| Heavy power cable | Mains, sub-mains, large drum ends | High-recovery cable |
| Building wire and TPS | Rewires and new work offcuts | Mid-recovery cable |
| Flex, data and phone cable | Leads, comms and data runs | Low-recovery cable |
Separate bins or bags for each metal on the job make the yard visit quick.
Ring 08 7225 9998 for large, multi-vehicle or forklift loads.
Bring it to 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields. No booking for everyday loads.
We grade each metal with you and weigh it on certified scales.
Show photo ID and get paid by bank transfer before you leave.
Small habits on site make a big difference at the scales.
One for heavy cable, one for building wire, one for data and flex.
Stripping thin cable rarely pays for the time. Heavy cable is worth stripping.
It is illegal, toxic and oxidises the copper so it grades lower.
Steel and plastic attachments lower the grade of the whole bag.
“Very well priced and very good customer service like always.”
“Good service and excellent price. Keep going guys.”
“Great staff and very welcoming, and best prices in the market.”
Yes. Insulated cable offcuts, drum ends, strip-out cable, bright copper wire, busbar and old motors are all bought at our Green Fields yard and graded with you.
Only for heavy cable. Bright stripped wire is paid at copper rates, but thin flex and data cable hold so little copper that stripping rarely pays for the time.
No. Drive in during opening hours. For a large load, several vehicles or anything that needs a forklift, call 08 7225 9998 first so we have space and equipment ready.
By bank transfer at the counter, the same visit, with every sale recorded and receipted. Bring photo ID and your BSB and account number.
