Why Parramatta Residents and Tradies Trust Urban Copper Recycling
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Parramatta is a hotspot for scrap copper. Parramatta is one of Sydney’s fastest-growing commercial and industrial areas which means lots of electrical, plumbing and construction work is happening – and high-value non-ferrous scrap coming with it.
What makes us different to the dozens of ‘recyclers’ on Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree? We do the simple things right. Accurate weighing. Up-to-date market prices. No bullshit.
- Transparent pricing that reflects the current metal market. We’re not shy to explain what you’re being paid for and why.
- Honest scales. We weigh every load on calibrated equipment with your full view.
- Safe, fast payment. Because we pay electronically into your nominated bank account, there’s no dodgy cash handling.
- Focus on non-ferrous metals. We don’t have a yard full of scrap tyres or hunks of concrete waiting to drag down your price. We’re experts in high-value non-ferrous metals.

What Scrap Metal Do We Buy in Parramatta?
We only buy non-ferrous scrap metal. The simple definition of non-ferrous is any metal that doesn’t contain iron. These types of metals typically have higher value than ferrous metals (which do contain iron). If you’re ever unsure if we buy something, give us a call. We’ll know straight away.
The following non-ferrous metals are what we’re after:
- Copper – bright, clean copper, tinned copper, and heavy gauge copper (including pipe, wire and offcuts)
- Brass – taps, fittings, valves or mixed scrap brass
- Aluminium – aluminium extrusions, sheet, or cast aluminium
- Lead – lead sheet, flashing or offcuts
- Stainless steel – 304 and 316 stainless steel grades
Here are some common trade sources of metal around Parramatta:
- Copper pipe, tube, and cylinders
- Electrical cable and wiring offcuts
- Brass plumbing fittings and valves
- Copper and aluminium debris from HVAC and refrigeration
- Aluminium extrusion and offcuts from fabrication
Please note we do not buy steel, cast iron, whitegoods or household appliances.
Photo ID & Secure Payment: What You Need To Know
There are a couple of legal requirements that allow the scrap metal industry to operate legitimately in NSW. We feel it’s only fair to let our customers know what they are up front.
A valid photo ID is required when selling your scrap metal
When selling your scrap metal, sellers are legally required to provide valid photo identification. This can be an Australian driver licence, passport, or another approved government-issued photo ID card. This is common practice across many industries in Australia, and it helps to ensure the scrap metal industry stays legit.
All payments will be made by Bank Transfer
Cash payments for scrap metal are not legal in NSW. All payments will be made securely into your nominated bank account. This helps keep all transactions traceable and above board.
That’s pretty much it. Just remember to bring your photo ID and your bank details and we’ll take care of the rest.
