Frequently Asked Questions
What is the current price for scrap steel in Australia?
Scrap steel prices across Australia generally sit between $0.10 and $0.5 per kg in 2026, though Melbourne rates for heavy melting steel can reach $0.30 to $0.45 per kg depending on Asian steel mill demand and local construction activity. Clean, heavy steel always earns more than light or mixed loads.
What are the current prices of metals per kg?
Melbourne rates currently sit around $9 to $17 per kg for copper, $0.90 to $4.20 per kg for aluminium, and $3.50 to $11 per kg for brass, with steel trading well below the non-ferrous group. Every scrap metal rate moves daily, so we confirm your exact price before pickup.
What's the highest paying scrap right now?
Where is the best place to sell scrap metal?
For bulk loads, a licensed Melbourne recycler that weighs on-site, sorts by metal type, and pays on the spot gives you the most reliable outcome. Ezi Metal handles large-volume pickups for businesses, factories, and construction sites, so you get a fair scrap metal rate without arranging your own transport.
What is the price of 1 kilo of aluminium?
Aluminium currently trades between $0.90 and $4.20 per kg in Melbourne, depending on whether it’s clean extrusion, cast, or mixed with coatings and other materials. Sorted, uncontaminated aluminium always sits toward the higher end of that scrap metal value.
Is it worth stripping copper wire for scrap?
Bare, clean copper pays significantly more than insulated wire, so stripping can lift your return, but it takes time and isn’t always practical for large volumes. For bulk cable loads, we grade and price both bare and insulated copper on the spot, so stripping beforehand isn’t necessary.
What scrap metal is worth the most money?
Clean copper consistently earns the highest scrap metal rate, followed by brass and then aluminium. Ferrous metals like steel and iron pay the least per kilogram, though heavy, clean steel still adds up in bulk quantities. Sorting your load by metal type before pickup maximises your overall return.
