Price Disclaimer
UK Metal Prices is an information service, not a scrap metal dealer. We do not buy or sell scrap metal. We are not licensed under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013.
Prices Are Estimates
All prices shown on this website are indicative estimates based on London Metal Exchange data and published UK scrap yard prices. They should be used as a guide only. Actual prices offered by scrap yards will vary based on:
- Your location and proximity to the yard
- The quantity of metal you are selling
- The grade, condition, and cleanliness of your metal
- Current market conditions and the time of day
- Whether you are a trade customer or a member of the public
Always Confirm Before You Travel
We strongly recommend calling your local scrap yard to confirm their current buy prices before making a journey, especially for large or heavy loads. Prices can change during the day in response to LME movements.
Data Sources
Our prices are aggregated from multiple UK scrap yard sources. We never republish a single yard's exact price schedule. Prices shown are averages, highs, and lows across our source network. We update daily but cannot guarantee real-time accuracy.
Not Financial Advice
Nothing on this website constitutes financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any commodity. LME spot prices are provided for informational purposes and are based on London Metal Exchange data, not official LME settlement prices.
