How Do I Know If My Scrap Metal Is Valuable?
Not sure if the metal you have is worth recycling? Don’t worry, identifying valuable scrap can be tricky without the right tools or experience. One simple method you can try at home is the magnet test:
Just place a magnet near the metal. If it doesn’t stick, chances are you’re dealing with a non-ferrous metal, which tends to be more valuable, like copper, brass, or aluminum.
Scrap metal prices can vary, but most materials are worth anywhere from a few cents to several dollars per pound, depending on type and market demand. Bring your materials to HBM, and our team will help you sort, identify, and evaluate what you’ve got.
