How to identify

  • Unsorted loads containing a mixture of ferrous and non-ferrous material.
  • Run a magnet through the load first — that single pass splits most of the value.
  • Photograph and scan the pile to get an AI composition estimate before you sort.

Common uses

  • Yard intake
  • Demolition clean-ups
  • Workshop offcut bins
  • Estate and farm clearances

Recycling information

  • Sorting almost always pays more than selling a mixed load at the blended rate.
  • Pull copper, brass and stainless out first — they carry the majority of the value.
  • Weigh each sorted stream separately so your settlement can be checked line by line.
