Sell copper scrap at our Toledo yard

Copper is a non-ferrous metal used in plumbing, electrical wiring, motors, radiators, and many other products. Scrap buyers separate copper into categories because clean pipe, insulated wire, mixed copper, and copper attached to other materials are not processed the same way.

How to prepare copper for recycling

  • Keep copper separate from steel, aluminum, brass, and trash.
  • Separate clean pipe from fittings or material with attachments when practical.
  • Keep insulated wire separate from bare copper.
  • Do not burn insulation from wire.
  • Call before bringing unusual, sealed, or unidentified items.

What determines copper value?

Pricing depends on the copper grade, contamination, insulation, solder, fittings, other attached material, total weight, and the current commodity market.

Prices change. Call 419-478-5100 for current guidance. A phone description can help, but final classification occurs when the material is inspected.
