Scrap Metal

hbk123 · 25 Apr 2011 at 09:36

Hi guys,
I have about 5 old cases and was wandering if anyone knows any scrap metal dealers in North-West London and also if you know roughly how much i could get for them.

Thanks

Unless its Aluminum and copper, then its practically worthless.

Aluminium £850 per tonne. So 85p per kilo. Average case weight is approx 10kg. Technically you would get £8.50 per case. BUT! It is contaminated with paint etc, so actual price would be much less. Good luck.

You'd get a better price for the case on ebay probably.

An aluminium case is typically a fair bit less than 10kg, unless it's a massive Lian Li tower, and of course not all of that is aluminium.

Just a guesstimate tbh! I googled a couple of cases and they were both around that. And as I said, its contaminated.

light iron, £160 a ton - 5 cases = around £3-£5 worth a scrap. Not worth your time taking em to the yard.
