ScrapNSW.com is an independent information resource built to help people understanding scrap metal regulations and dealer requirements specific to New South Wales — real answers on licensing, ID requirements, cash rules, and staying compliant.
Why We Built This
Most scrap pricing information online ignores the regulatory side entirely. We wanted something different: specific, honest answers to the exact NSW-specific compliance questions a scrap seller or buyer actually has, grounded in how it’s really regulated — not marketing copy.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
ScrapNSW.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 answering the compliance questions that come before a sale, ScrapTrade is where the sale actually happens: list your material, receive competitive offers from business-verified buyers, and get paid through secure escrow with transparent weighing.
We built this site because the same NSW regulatory questions kept coming up from sellers on the platform — this is those answers, in one place.
What We’re Not
We’re not a scrap yard, and we don’t buy or sell material directly through this site — this is an information resource, not a marketplace, and not legal advice. For the actual buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
