Scrap Value of Other Items

Estimated scrap value of common other items in Australia. Sorted by value descending. Each entry links to a detailed breakdown showing the metal composition, prep tips, and where to sell.

This category collects items that don't fit the main groups but are still common at Australian scrap yards — mixed metal offcuts, hardware, tools, and assorted household metal. Their value depends entirely on what they're made of and how cleanly the metals can be separated. As a rule, anything non-magnetic and heavy is worth checking (it may be copper, brass, or lead), while light magnetic items are usually low-value steel. The items below cover the most frequently scrapped miscellaneous items, with breakdowns to help you judge whether a trip to the yard is worthwhile.
