YEARS OF
EXPERIENCE
Established in 2004, Scrappy’s is one of the largest scrap metal recycling companies in Melbourne.

Metal recycling is the future for our country’s sustainability. Not many people realise how much scrap metal can be recycled and its true value. Our customers are often surprised when they hear the prices we are offering for their waste metal.

Buying
It’s simple to get paid for recycling ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metal. Our recycling service includes collection, transport, receiving, storage, recycling and disposal of a complete range of metals. Click below to view some of the typical items we buy every day.
What We Buy
Selling
Some of the metal we buy can be reused without scrapping. We also acquire unusual lengths that can't be sold at full price. Or maybe it's weathered, dented or doesn't quite meet standards. We sell this as second hand or downgrade steel.
What We Sell
Weighbridge
A conveniently located weighbridge designed for trucks, caravans, trailers and passenger vehicles. Weighbridges determine the mass of a vehicle, including prime movers and connected trailers, useful when measuring scrap for transport compliance.
Our Location
Bins
Our bin services are a great way to maximise efficiency and return. We provide a range of tailored programmes and bin collection designed to reduce labour, meet compliance and simplify your metal recycling requirements.
Bin Options
Collection
Our fleet of modern trucks are equipped to handle everything - bins, vehicles, buildings and deconstruction. We buy and collect cars for scrap throughout the western suburbs. Our industrial services dismantle and remove steel buildings and machinery.

    Downgrade Steel Sales

    We buy lots of metal and some can be reused without scrapping. We also sell unusual lengths that can’t be sold at full price. Or maybe weathered, dented or metal that doesn’t meet standards. We sell this heaviliy discounted as second-hand or downgraded.

    whats for sale?
    Building & Construction

    Second-hand metal building materials are available at heavily discounted prices. While these may be weathered, dented or odd lengths, they are perfect for internal use when the appearance doesnt matter. Alternatively, the weathered look may present new possibilities and effects.

    Home, Shed &
    Garden

    Downgrade steel is ideal for projects around the home, shed, garage and in the garden. Ideal for any project that doesn’t need new materials or may benefit from an unusually worn texture. Projects like veggie gardens, edging and other similar non-structural purposes are perfect for downgrade.

    Plumbing & Trades

    Are you a plumber, carpenter, or electrician and need to get a job done on a tight budget where the condition doesn’t matter? Second hand or downgrade parts are your best solution. Second hand metal building materials are available at heavily discounted prices.
