Material notes for Light Scrap

Light scrap is usually thinner and lower-density than HMS, so volume, contamination and processing condition have a strong impact on handling cost.

Typical material

Thin sheet, appliances, light fabrication scrap, sheared light scrap and shredded light scrap.

What to check

Plastic, rubber, foam, paint, soil, mixed non-ferrous metals and whether the material is loose or compacted.

Frequently asked questions about Light Scrap

Why is Light Scrap different from HMS?

Light scrap is thinner and less dense, so transport and preparation cost are different from heavy prepared steel.

Can loose Light Scrap be evaluated?

Yes, but loose material should be photographed clearly because density, volume and contamination affect the estimate.

What affects the price of Light Scrap?

Price depends on thickness, cleanliness, coating, density, amount of non-steel material, loading access and market conditions.

How should Light Scrap be prepared?

Remove plastics, rubber, wood and non-ferrous metals where possible. If the material is sheared, shredded or baled, show the processed condition in photos.
