Copper, Brass & Lead Prices for Walsall Sellers

We publish our prices online and update them daily in line with the metal markets, so you know what you will be paid before you load the van. Walsall sellers most often bring us:

Copper – bright wire, clean copper pipe, mixed copper and copper tanks. See copper prices for Walsall.
Brass – taps, valves, fittings, clean brass and mixed brass. See our brass scrap prices.
Lead – roofing lead, flashing and old lead pipe. See lead scrap prices.
Cable – household, armoured and data cable.
