Identify fluids, batteries or other potentially hazardous contents separately; a metal quotation does not establish acceptance of those contents or include specialist handling.
How a bulk scrap buying enquiry works
1. Describe the lot
Send a material list, representative photos, estimated quantity and the site location. Mark unknown grades and estimated weights clearly.
2. Agree on the assessment
Discuss inspection, accepted grades, weighing arrangements and whether the offer is per kg, per metric tonne or for the whole lot.
3. Confirm the sale terms
Agree on loading, transport, deductions, documents and payment timing before authorising removal. An enquiry is not a confirmed purchase.
What to send for a factory scrap quotation
- Materials: separate quantities for steel, copper, aluminium, brass and mixed machinery; note known grades and attachments.
- Quantity: state kg or metric tonnes and whether each weight is measured or estimated. One metric tonne equals 1,000 kg.
- Photos: show the entire lot, representative close-ups, large-item dimensions and loading access.
- Location: share the city, state, pincode, vehicle restrictions and available inspection times.
- Sale scope: identify excluded items, required removal dates and whether dismantling, lifting or loading is needed.
- Authority and records: identify the business contact authorised to discuss the sale. Confirm the inventory, quotation, weighing record, invoice and site-release documents required for your transaction with the team.
This is an enquiry checklist, not a statement that every document or service applies to every sale. Share sensitive business documents privately after the team confirms what is needed.
Compare the full offer, not just the headline rate
Start with the listed scrap buying rates, then request a quote for your actual lot. References are not fixed nationwide offers. For mixed material, confirm whether each grade is weighed separately or one price covers the whole lot.
- Weighing and deductions
- Agree on the weighing location, gross and tare records, packaging, attachments and accepted net material weight. Ask how disputed weights or grades will be resolved before handover.
- Loading and transport
- Confirm who provides labour, lifting equipment and transport, who pays, and the site-access conditions. Do not assume free transport, nationwide collection at every address or dismantling included in the purchase price.
- Payment and release
- Confirm payment method, timing, any applicable taxes and the agreed sale record. A photo assessment is preliminary; the final price and removal arrangements need agreement with the team.
