Why Recycle Scrap Copper in Richmond Hill?

Copper is one of the most recycled metals because it's highly valued and sustainable. At the Tal Metal scrap yard, we make recycling your copper products in Richmond Hill easy and rewarding.

Common Scrap Copper Items:

• Electric cable and enamelled wire
• HVAC equipment and air handling units
• Drainage and plumbing pipes
• Roofing material and structural tubes
• Old appliances and electronics
• Factory end-cuts of copper

Key Benefits of Recycling Copper:

• Saves up to 90% of the energy used for mining and refining
• Reduces CO₂ emissions and pollution
• Diverts recyclable materials from landfills
• Preserves up to 90% of copper's original value
• Helps stabilize market prices when uncertainty exists

Over a third of copper consumption globally today is made up of recycled content. Countries like China use 60% of global copper scrap for domestic smelting, increasing global demand and the significance of this recycled metal.

What Affects Scrap Copper Prices?

Richmond Hill copper prices follow international demand and supply levels:

• Copper mine production and disruptions (shutdowns, accidents)
• Industrial manufacturing volumes (increased production = increased off-cuts)
• Economic cycles and changes in world trade
• Grade, purity, and condition of the copper scrap

During booms, factories generate more volume of copper off-cuts, and more people replace old air conditioners and cars. During depressions, recycling volumes decrease, and prices increase.

Fortunately, scrap copper typically acts as a market stabilizer during down markets, supporting supply when production of virgin copper weakens.
