Erskine Park is one of the most active logistics precincts in Western Sydney. Being at the intersection of the M4, M7, and Westlink has attracted many major players in the retail and freight industries to build their facilities there, including Aldi, Coles, Officeworks, TNT, Linfox, DHL, and many third-party logistics (3PL) companies. Erskine Park has constant logistics activity, and behind the daily pallet movement is a continual stream of scrap. Scrap metal that is valuable if you know the right people to call includes end-of-life copper cabling from lighting and racking upgrades, aluminium pallet banding and racking, brass fittings from plumbing and air lines, lead-acid batteries, and stainless steel from fit-outs and equipment upgrades.

The Non-Ferrous Metals We Collect at Erskine Park

We collect only non-ferrous scrap metals. All scrap metals collected from Erskine Park are graded and weighed. This includes the following:

Copper

Copper in all its forms, such as bright wire, sparky offcuts, bare bright, #1 tube from HVAC swap-outs, #2 copper with paint or solder, and heavy copper busbars from switchboards and MSBs. As lighting upgrades in older sheds occur, tons of clean copper become available.

Insulated Copper Cable

Insulated copper cable, large industrial feeders, as well as small data cables. Do not let building services contractors throw away old copper cables in your skip. We pay for their value.

Brass

Brass in all grades, including mixed plumbing offcuts, fittings, valves, and taps. Gunmetal is included. The Bradthorn Estate has lots of contracts for compressed-air line rework, which produces plenty of brass.

Aluminium

Aluminium, including extrusions, cast and sheet aluminium, dross, wheels, and irony aluminium. Racking, mezzanines, handrails, and window frames may also contain aluminium or lead.

Lead

Lead, including flashing, wheel weights, and lead from dead batteries.

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel 304 and 316, commonly found in food-grade fit-outs.

Other Scrap Materials

Other Scrap Materials

Radiators from cars, trucks, industrial plant, and cooling systems, as well as electric motors, transformers, alternators, and starters. Fleets serviced in workshops around Erskine Park leave these materials behind.

We buy batteries used in forklifts, MHE, standby power systems, and trucks.

Why Erskine Park Sites Choose Urban Copper Recycling?

Erskine Park is about a 45-minute drive from the Sydney CBD, and sending a truck to a scrap yard on the other side of the city can cost a shift due to traffic. We come to your yard, weigh onsite, and pay before we drive off. That provides an advantage for your operations team.

1. Free onsite collection for postcode 2759 with no call-out fee.

2. Most bookings are for same-day or next-day pickup, with trucks designed to fit in standard dock-door-sized spaces or arrive before a shift change.

3. Payment is made when we pull up, either in cash or by same-day bank transfer.

4. We provide compliant documentation and weigh dockets. This helps your finance team answer any questions that the documentation may raise.

5. We have ongoing scheduled runs to take your week’s worth of waste from small freight-forwarding companies near Sky Reach Avenue to large Coles and Aldi distribution centres, and all points in between.

6. We specialise in running full site strip-outs for warehouses. This includes the removal of old switchgear, scrap stainless steel benches, aluminium racking, and copper cable.

Best Scrap Metal Recycling Services Erskine Park Estate

The Erskine Park Business Hub is not an easy site for an unfamiliar driver. Our drivers navigate Roberts Road, Lockwood Road, Quarry Road, Templar Road, Old Wallgrove Road, and the M7 Interchange every day, but internal roads can be deceiving. Erskine Park Business Hub has some strict dock zones and varying site induction requirements, making it difficult for external drivers. Our drivers arrive at your gatehouse within the booked time and remove your waste.

    FREQUENTLY
    ASKED QUESTIONS

    Do you purchase insulated cable in strips?

    We buy cable either insulated or sheathed, or we strip it ourselves and purchase the bare copper. Most Erskine Park sites do not have the time to strip cable themselves, so we buy it in that condition.

    What is the process for replacing a forklift battery in Erskine Park?

    You can book a transport truck with the right lifting equipment by giving us a call on 0412 500 063. Once we know how many batteries you have and their size, we can arrange the collection. We settle payment once we have weighed the load onsite.

    Can you remove racking and switchboards in a lease handback?

    Yes. Removal of aluminium racking and copper busbars during warehouse lease handbacks is something we do. We quote onsite for anything over a ute load.

    What payment methods do you take, cash or bank transfer?

    We take both. For smaller loads, payment is made on the spot. For larger commercial loads, payment is made by bank transfer to your business account on the same business day.
