- Street kabaris: buy small quantities from homes, usually at lower rates, with on-the-spot cash.
- Local scrap dealers (godowns): buy sorted material by weight and pay better for larger lots.
- Specialist buyers: copper, battery, e-waste or plastic recyclers that pay the best rate for their material.
- Wholesale merchants: buy factory and industrial lots in tons and arrange transport.
How to choose a good dealer
- They quote a clear per kg rate before weighing.
- They weigh on a working scale in front of you, or on a public weighbridge for large loads.
- They pay before loading and do not change the rate after weighing.

Frequently asked questions
What is a scrap mandi?
A scrap mandi is a market area where many dealers trade scrap side by side, so sellers can compare rates in one place. Most large cities have one.
Why do different dealers quote different rates?
Each dealer sells to different end buyers, has different transport costs and needs different materials. Comparing two or three quotes usually gets you a fairer price.
