WHY METRUNA?

When should metal waste
be delivered to the buyer?

Scrap metal is an inevitable companion on construction sites, in repair or industrial spaces. Although small metal packages can be thrown into a regular sorting container, when a larger amount of metal waste accumulates, the question often arises: how to properly dispose of it? Scrap metal purchase is a quick and easy solution when the waste is accepted by the nearest metal recycling center. This is a convenient way to get rid of old or broken equipment, car parts or other structures. The service is popular not only among individuals, but also among business clients – for example, manufacturing companies where metal waste accumulates constantly.

It is important to know that the delivery of metal waste does not require any special preparation. The metal recycling center also accepts rusty, deformed or non-functional metal residues. The client also does not need to know the exact type or weight of the metal – all this is assessed by specialists after you arrive at the selected unit.

Small quantities of scrap metal are usually most conveniently delivered independently – for example, in a trailer, in the trunk of a car or by light commercial vehicle. If you do not have a suitable vehicle, Metruna offers its customers a free trailer rental service.

Frequently
asked questions

How does the purchase of scrap metal work at one of the Metruna scrapyards?

  1. You deliver the collected metal waste to the nearest Metruna metal purchase center.
  2. Our team assesses the type of metal and the level of contamination.
  3. The scrap metal is weighed.
  4. Taking into account the weight, type of metal and contamination, the purchase price of the metal is calculated.
  5. Settlement is made and the necessary documents or certificates are issued as needed.

Do I need to provide an ID when delivering scrap metal?

Yes, when delivering scrap metal to a metal buyer, you must present a valid ID or driver’s license. This is necessary not only for identity verification, but also so that the metal purchase data is transmitted to the State Tax Inspectorate. In this case, the 5% GPM tax is deducted immediately when the scrap metal purchase is completed, and the income you receive is automatically included in your annual tax return.

Is it possible to deliver metal waste from a legal entity?

Metruna scrap metal buyers are only open on weekdays. Exact opening hours may vary in different cities, so we always recommend checking our website or calling us before arriving.

Is the procedure for purchasing scrap metal and providing services to individuals and legal entities?

Yes – we work with both physical and legal clients, and we can issue an invoice if necessary. In addition, for companies whose territory constantly generates metal waste, we can offer not only a metal purchase service in our departments, but also an even more convenient metal scrap removal or metal waste containers delivery to the address you specify.

Can I bring scrap metal if it is not completely cleaned of other materials?

Yes, at Metruna metal shops we also accept scrap metal that contains residual plastic, rubber or other impurities. In this case, a contamination percentage is applied, which is subtracted from the total weight of the waste delivered. The contamination percentage is determined by taking into account how many non-metallic impurities are found.

Do you accept rusty or deformed scrap metal?

Scrap metal is purchased even if the metal is rusted or deformed, but the contamination of the scrap metal is always taken into account.

During recycling, scrap metal is pressed, cut and melted, so deformation has no effect.

Can scrap metal prices vary depending on the city and buyer?

Yes, scrap metal prices may vary slightly between different Metruna branches. We always advise you to check prices before visiting your nearest scrap metal dealer.

Where can I find out what metal prices apply at a specific Metruna shopping center?

All cities’ metal buyers have separate pages on the Metruna website. They clearly present metal prices by type of metal: scrap copper (copper purchase), non-ferrous metal prices, battery purchase price, ferrous metal price, brass price, etc.

Before arriving to deliver scrap metal, we recommend that you review the page of the unit you plan to visit. You can find a map of our metal buyers here.

What are the working hours of Metruna metal buyers?

All Metruna metal buyers are open on weekdays – from Monday to Friday. The usual working hours are 8:00-17:00, but in certain cities they may differ slightly. For this reason, before arriving, we suggest checking the exact information about the working hours at the buyer nearest you. You can do this on our website by clicking on the name of a specific city on this page.

Is there a minimum or maximum amount of scrap metal that you recommend bringing at one time?

There is no strict quantity limit – scrap metal can be purchased from just a few kilograms. However, if you have very large quantities of scrap metal (e.g., from 2-3 tons), it may be more convenient to choose another service – not scrap metal delivery, but removal, when we take care of the disposal of metal waste directly from your territory.

Is it possible to receive an invoice for the scrap metal I have delivered?

Yes. We issue invoices to both individual and legal customers. We provide all the necessary data on the invoice – weight, type of metal and the scrap metal purchase price applied on that day.
