2. Price not affected by contamination
Cables that are being retrieved from the ground may contain water and soil which will add on to the weight of the cables. You will receive a lower price due to the contamination when you sell by weight. However, when you sell by length, we quote you based on the length of copper in the cable only. As such, the price is not affected by contamination.  In addition, the weight of the drum doesn’t affect us either. Therefore, we are able to give you the best price of your scrap cable based on the copper content alone and no other external factors.Â
