Frequently Asked Questions
Is scrap metal collection really free in Singapore?
Yes, for substantial industrial loads — factories, construction sites, engineering and process plants, warehouses. Smaller or residential quantities are still welcome as drop-offs at our 170 Gul Circle yard; we handle unloading and payment on arrival.
How do I schedule a scrap metal pickup?
Call +65 9106 7577 or WhatsApp. Tell us your location, approximate load type and weight. We confirm a same-day or next-day pickup window.
Do you supply bins or containers?
Yes. For regular commercial clients we supply scrap bins for ongoing collection — arrange via call for a site visit and bin agreement.
Our Collection Service Process Step-by-Step
From first call to paid settlement, the typical collection job runs through seven stages. For most customers the whole sequence is completed within 24-48 hours.
- Enquiry & indicative quote — Call or WhatsApp with a description of the material (type, rough quantity, access). We give a ballpark per-kilo range on the spot using current scrap metal prices.
- Scheduling — Pickup slot confirmed within 24 hours for metro and industrial Singapore. Same-day slots are common when the yard has lorry availability.
- Dispatch — Appropriate vehicle assigned: 10-foot or 14-foot lorry crane for typical industrial pickups, 40-footer trailer for long stock or bulk loads, and our excavator with magnet or grappler attachments for very large on-site clearances (demolition sites, plant decommissions, structural strip-outs).
- Arrival & access check — Driver confirms loading area, headroom, and any lift/ramp restrictions. Access photos or site contact details taken up-front reduce wasted trips.
- On-site weighing or yard weighbridge — Smaller clearances are weighed at our Tuas yard on a verified weighbridge; larger industrial pickups can be weighed on site using certified portable scales.
- Firm quote & acceptance — After grading and XRF verification (for non-ferrous), a firm price is issued. You accept by signature or WhatsApp confirmation before settlement.
- Payment — PayNow, bank transfer, cheque, or cash (up to statutory limits). Standard settlement is within 24 hours; account customers receive same-day transfer.
Who Uses Our Collection Service
Collection is our most-booked service because most sellers don’t want to arrange their own transport. Typical callers include:
Factory facilities and plant engineers
Scheduled uplifts for machining swarf, stamping offcuts, and obsolete fixtures — often containerised bins swapped on a 2-4 week rotation. Typical volumes 2-8 tonnes per pickup across Jurong and Tuas.
Landed property owners and contractors
Renovation clearances: old gates, grilles, aircon condensers, water heaters, and kitchen hoods. Usually 100 kg to 1.5 tonnes. Crane lorry required if the gate is welded in place.
Condominium and facilities management
Common-area clearance — pool equipment, signage, bulk aircon replacements during en-bloc upgrades. MCSTs and facility managers coordinate access and loading zones; we handle weighbridge tickets and disposal paperwork.
Retailers, F&B and commercial kitchens
Stainless steel fabrication from closed or refurbished restaurants — cold rooms, work tables, sinks, ovens. Volumes 200 kg to 2 tonnes; usually lifted the same week the tenancy hands over.
Construction sites and M&E subcontractors
Rebar offcuts, copper cable drums, aluminium formwork, strut and conduit — site-level uplifts from Woodlands, Sungei Kadut, and central construction zones.
Real Collection Examples
Illustrative recent pickups, details genericised.
Jurong logistics hub, end-of-lease clearout: 3.6 tonnes of racking, cable trays, and palletised electrical offcuts cleared in two trips with a 14-foot crane lorry. Pickup scheduled Friday; settlement paid by PayNow Saturday afternoon.
Bukit Timah landed property renovation: old steel gate, two aircon chassis, one stainless kitchen hood (~240 kg total). Single van dispatch, on-site weighing, paid in cash on collection within the homeowner’s permit ceiling.
Tuas marine workshop, quarterly uplift: recurring 5-tonne copper-alloy bin swap — filled bin removed, empty bin dropped on the same trip. Invoice settled monthly against contracted LME-linked pricing.
Collection FAQ
How quickly can you pick up?
For most Singapore postcodes, within 24 hours. Same-day collection is common for industrial areas if we have a truck free — call or WhatsApp early in the day for best odds.
Is there a minimum volume for pickup?
Free pickup is sized for substantial industrial loads from construction sites, factories, warehouses, and engineering or process plants. Smaller volumes are welcome as drop-offs at our 170 Gul Circle yard, or we may combine with a nearby pickup when timing allows.
Do I need to prepare the scrap in any way?
Separate hazardous contaminants (oil, chemicals, asbestos) which we cannot accept. Otherwise pre-sorting into ferrous vs non-ferrous — see our identification guide — improves your quote.
Can you dismantle items on site?
Yes, for straightforward items (gates, tanks, aircon chassis). Our trucks carry basic cutting and rigging tools. For complex dismantling (heavy machinery, structural steel), we’ll quote a separate dismantling fee.
How is the price determined?
Grade-by-grade against same-day market benchmarks — ferrous scrap against domestic HMS indices, non-ferrous against the LME. Try our scrap metal calculator for a pre-collection estimate.
What areas do you cover?
Islandwide. We run trucks out of Tuas daily and publish pickup information for Jurong, Tuas, Joo Koon, Sungei Kadut, and Woodlands as our highest-demand zones.
Coverage & Volume
Collection runs cover all Singapore postcodes. Heaviest demand is from western industrial clusters — Tuas, Jurong, Joo Koon — where we can often dispatch same-day. Northern runs cover Woodlands and Sungei Kadut; eastern and central pickups usually scheduled next-day. Minimum practical pickup is ~200 kg; largest single-job collection we’ve handled recently was 180 tonnes of structural steel across 11 trips over one week.
If you’re near one of our yards or running a larger clearance, drop-off at our Tuas weighbridge is the fastest path to payment — see our seller’s guide for specifics.
Our Collection Fleet
The yard runs a mixed fleet sized to the job: 5-foot vans for residential and small commercial clearances, 10-foot and 14-foot lorries for factory pickups, and lorry cranes rated to 3, 5, and 7 tonnes for heavy items such as aircon chillers, welded gates, industrial tanks, and steel plant. For oversized loads we can arrange low-loaders with LTA permits where route constraints require. Each driver carries a basic rigging kit — chains, webbing slings, shackles, and cutting torches for non-pressurised dismantling on site.
Onsite Scrap Metal Pickup in Singapore
We run a true onsite scrap metal pickup service across Singapore — our crew comes to your site, rigs, cuts down to loadable size where required, loads our truck, weighs on certified scales, and pays same-day. No need for you to haul, no need for you to sort, no need for you to arrange a crane. Pickup is free for substantial industrial loads — factories, construction sites, warehouses, engineering and process plants. For smaller or residential quantities, drop off at our 170 Gul Circle yard during business hours and we handle unloading and payment on arrival.
Onsite pickup is the default for factories, construction sites, shipyards, demolition jobs, and commercial fit-outs. Our trucks carry rigging (chains, webbing slings, shackles), cutting torches for non-pressurised dismantling, and a mobile certified weighing scale. For oversized loads we arrange low-loaders with LTA permits. For heavy lifts we bring a crane or coordinate with your on-site lifting equipment.
Typical onsite pickup window: same-day for west Singapore (Jurong, Tuas, Pioneer, Sungei Kadut, Woodlands); 24–48 hours for Changi, Tampines, the CBD, and Bukit Merah. Urgent pickups can be arranged — call +65 9106 7577 and we will work to your schedule.
Bulk Scrap Metal Collection in Singapore
For bulk scrap metal collection — loads over 1 tonne, multi-trip factory clearances, or regular scheduled pickups — we offer tonnage pricing and dedicated routing. Bulk clients include factories across the industrial belt, construction contractors on major developments, demolition companies, shipyards, MEP firms, and facilities management teams.
A typical bulk arrangement:
- Free skip or cage provision — we drop metal skips in common sizes (3–15 cubic metres) at your site. You fill, we swap. Separate skips for ferrous and non-ferrous to keep grading clean.
- Scheduled pickup rotation — weekly, fortnightly, or monthly on a fixed day. You never have to call; we show up.
- Tonnage pricing sheet — volume clients get a dedicated rate sheet with a small premium over spot. Rates refresh weekly against the LME.
- Single consolidated invoicing — monthly statement with individual weight tickets attached. Clean paper trail for your accounts.
- Dedicated account contact — one phone number, one WhatsApp, one email for the entire relationship.
For one-off bulk clearances — end-of-project site clean, factory closure, major refit — we deploy multi-truck crews on a scheduled clearance window. Site surveys are free; quoting is transparent and tied to the alloy breakdown we observe on the walk-through.
Bulk or onsite pickup both start the same way: call +65 9106 7577 or WhatsApp with a photo and approximate tonnage. We come back with an indicative rate within the hour.
