Brisbane Scrap Metal Recycling buys scrap wire, aluminium and other metals at its Geebung yard. These answers cover
what the team accepts for scrap metal recycling in Brisbane, how collection works and what to expect when selling scrap.
Do You Pay Cash for Scrap Copper Wire in Brisbane?
Yes, Brisbane Scrap Metal Recycling pays cash on the spot for scrap copper wire. The yard accepts bright copper wire, bright copper hair wire and PVC copper wire. See the copper recycling page for the full list of accepted copper.
Do You Buy Insulated Wire or Only Stripped Copper?
Brisbane Scrap Metal Recycling accepts both. Stripped copper such as bright wire is taken, and so are insulated types, including PVC copper wire and steel armoured PVC copper wire. Call the Geebung team on 07 3162 8452 if the cable is an unusual type, so they can confirm before you travel.
Can You Collect Scrap Metal From My Home or Worksite in Brisbane?
Collection is available for large quantities only. The team offers factory clean-outs, machinery removal and scrap pickup, and it does not collect white goods, household appliances or light gauge steel. Smaller loads can be dropped off at the Geebung yard. Reach out to the team to arrange a pickup. We may also charge a fee depending on the load contents/size, so please contact the team.
What Types of Aluminium Scrap Do You Accept?
The yard accepts a wide range of aluminium. This includes extrusions, clean sheet, doors and windows, cast aluminium, clean wire, painted domestic sheet and radiators, whether clean or dirty. Details are on the aluminium recycling page.
How Are Scrap Metal Prices Decided?
Prices depend on the type of metal and the quantity brought in. Scrap markets also move over time, so the amount paid may change from week to week. Brisbane Scrap Metal Recycling does not publish fixed rates online, so request a quote or call 07 3162 8452 for current pricing.
Do I Need to Sort or Clean My Scrap Before Bringing It In?
Sorting is not always required, because the yard accepts both clean and dirty grades of some metals, such as aluminium radiators. Separating different metals into their own piles is still helpful. It may make weighing and assessing your load quicker at the Geebung yard.
Do You Also Buy Brass, Steel and Batteries?
Will Someone Help Me Unload My Scrap at the Yard?
Customers have said the staff are quick to lend a hand with unloading. However, please step out of the vehicle and show what exactly you are scrapping so we can give you a hand. The Geebung yard at 437 Newman Rd is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm and Saturday from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. It is closed on Sundays.
