SCRAP METAL PRICES — WHAT IS YOUR RESERVOIR SCRAP WORTH?

The value of your scrap depends on the metal type, grade, purity, and current global commodity prices. Non-ferrous metals such as copper and aluminium attract significantly higher per-kilogram rates than ferrous steel. The best way to know exactly what your load is worth is to call Manhari on 1300 397 678 — our team provides a fast, accurate over-the-phone estimate based on what you describe.

A key legal note for Reservoir sellers: under Victoria's Second-Hand Dealers and Pawnbrokers Act 2014, all scrap metal sales require valid photo ID. Manhari complies with all Victorian scrap metal regulations, and cash payments for scrap metal have been prohibited in Victoria since 2018 — payment is made by bank transfer or EFT.

MANHARI VS LOCAL RESERVOIR SCRAP DEALERS — WHY CHOOSE US?

Reservoir sits in Melbourne's northern scrap metal corridor, with several local dealers operating in the area. What distinguishes Manhari is our direct export capability: we are one of Victoria's largest exporters of steel and aluminium, with buyers in over 26 countries. This means our pricing reflects genuine global commodity demand, not just local supply dynamics. Coupled with free bins, free pickup, and 17+ years of service, Manhari offers a more comprehensive and financially rewarding service than most local competitors.

SUSTAINABILITY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

Every tonne of scrap metal recycled through Manhari avoids landfill and reduces the need for virgin ore extraction. Recycling aluminium uses 95% less energy than producing new aluminium from bauxite. Recycling steel saves approximately 74% of the energy compared to virgin production. For Reservoir businesses with environmental reporting obligations or sustainability targets, Manhari can provide recycling certificates and tonnage documentation for your records.
