What types of metal scrap and materials does 800 Scrap purchase?

We specialize in purchasing a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metal scrap. This includes insulated electrical cabling, bare copper wire, aluminum profiles, stainless steel offcuts, brass foundry scrap, heavy structural steel, redundant factory machinery, and obsolete server room IT hardware. Review our detailed services directory to see the full list of materials accepted at our yard.

Do you charge any logistics or transport fees for scrap collection?

No. We provide free scrap collection and hauling across Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, and the wider UAE. For commercial and industrial properties, our team coordinates the logistics completely—including flatbed cranes, loaders, or container placements—at zero cost, provided the materials meet our minimum commercial weight thresholds.

How are your buying rates determined for scrap recyclables?

Our commercial valuation structures track current global market spot rates on the London Metal Exchange (LME). This ensures that you receive the most accurate and fair market pricing for your metals on any given day. For large industrial assets, we coordinate weighing through approved local weighbridge networks to provide transparent, printed tickets.

Do you coordinate JAFZA, SAIF Zone, or KIZAD gate pass clearances?

Yes. Our specialized logistics desk coordinates all required Gate Passes, transport NOCs, and customs paperwork internally for major industrial free zones like Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), SAIF Zone, KEZAD, and RAKEZ. We manage the administrative clearances so that your facility exit remains compliant with local regulatory policies, saving your team administrative overhead.

Can you handle secure, certified data destruction for corporate offices?

Absolutely. Corporate electronics disposal and sensitive data security are treated with strict confidentiality. We execute physical hard drive (HDD) shredding and solid-state drive (SSD) sanitization at our facility. Following secure destruction, we issue a formal Certificate of Destruction to verify your organization’s compliance with local waste management data policies.

Is there a minimum weight requirement for scheduling a free scrap collection?

Yes. For our commercial fleet to schedule a free, on-site pickup, we usually require a minimum weight (typically starting from 500 kg to 1 tonne, depending on the material type). If you have smaller, residential quantities, you are always welcome to bring them directly to our central yard in Sharjah for instant weighing and grading.

What payment methods do you offer upon material collection?

We prioritize secure, immediate transactions. Once your materials are graded and weighed on our digital scales, we can issue settlement via instant cash, corporate bank transfers, or official company cheques, depending on your company's accounting preference.

Do you recycle household appliances (refrigerators, AC units, washing machines)?

Yes. We buy and collect large consumer household appliances, including air conditioning compressors, refrigerators, and metal-cased machinery. These are safely stripped down at our facility to separate valuable copper and aluminum components from plastic housings.

How long is a commercial metal scrap price quotation valid?

Because raw copper and metal scrap valuations are indexed to the London Metal Exchange (LME), pricing is subject to daily global market fluctuations. Standard price quotes are typically valid for 24 to 48 hours. For long-term contracting clients or massive facility strip-outs, we can lock in specific index-linked equations.

Do you provide scrap collection services on weekends or after standard business hours?

Yes. We understand that shopping mall strip-outs, office server room migrations, and heavy industrial plant dismantling often must take place outside of busy business hours to avoid operational downtime. Our logistics team can schedule weekend, holiday, or late-night dispatches with prior coordination. Contact our contact desk to set up a scheduled dispatch.

TODAY’S COPPER BUYING RATE IN ABU DHABI — UPDATED HOURLY

Copper Scrap Buyers in Abu Dhabi — Best Cash Price, Same-Day Pickup

Abu Dhabi’s industrial footprint is the largest in the UAE — Mussafah alone hosts thousands of workshops, while KIZAD’s heavy industry and utility-adjacent projects generate large-scale busbar and cable scrap from power infrastructure decommissioning. We’re equipped for both high-frequency small pickups and single large industrial lots.

Local Coverage in Abu Dhabi

Scaled for Mussafah's volume and KIZAD's heavy industry

Mussafah is the largest single industrial area in the UAE, and our routes there run daily given the sheer density of workshops. KIZAD is a different profile entirely — its heavy industry and utility-adjacent tenants periodically generate substation and power infrastructure decommissioning projects with large volumes of copper busbar and cable, which we handle as scheduled bulk jobs rather than standard pickups.

Al Ain sits further inland, so pickups there are typically scheduled a day in advance to consolidate loads efficiently, while ICAD gets folded into our regular Mussafah-area rotation.
