ScrapTradie.com is an independent information resource built to help people understand the scrap metal each trade produces, from electrical offcuts and plumbing copper to welding remnants and roofing sheet, and how tradespeople can set up simple sorting habits and sell what they collect.
Why We Built This
Most trade businesses throw away or give away scrap that a buyer would pay for, simply because nobody set up a system. We built this site to explain, trade by trade, what is worth keeping, how to sort it with almost no extra effort and how to sell it, without pretending that offcuts will replace your day rate.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
ScrapTradie.com is part of the ScrapTrade network — an online scrap trading marketplace connecting verified buyers and sellers of scrap metal, e-waste, batteries, and more. Where this site focuses on what each trade produces and how to sort it, ScrapTrade is where a full bin becomes offers from verified buyers, with transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
What We’re Not
We’re not a scrap buyer and we don’t handle transactions directly through this site — this is an information resource. For the actual buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
Sorting is half the job. ScrapTrade connects tradies with verified buyers, transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
