ScrapSA.com is an independent information resource built to help people buying and selling catalytic converter and precious metal scrap pricing make better decisions — real answers on PGM content, gold testing, and anti-theft compliance.
Why We Built This
Catalytic converters and precious metal scrap involve genuinely different questions than standard scrap metal — PGM assay accuracy, gold karat verification, anti-theft ID requirements. We wanted something different: specific, honest answers grounded in how precious metal scrap is really valued and verified — not marketing copy.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
ScrapSA.com is part of the ScrapTrade network — an online scrap trading marketplace connecting verified buyers and sellers of scrap metal, e-waste, batteries, and more. Where this site focuses on answering the pricing and verification questions that come before a sale, ScrapTrade is where the sale actually happens: list your material, receive competitive offers from business-verified buyers, and get paid through secure escrow with transparent weighing.
We built this site because the same catalytic converter and precious metal questions kept coming up from sellers on the platform — this is those answers, in one place.
What We’re Not
We’re not a scrap yard, and we don’t buy or sell material directly through this site — this is an information resource, not a marketplace. For the actual buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
Ready to sell your catalytic converters or precious metal scrap without the guesswork? ScrapTrade connects verified buyers and sellers with escrow-protected payments and transparent weighing.
