SSScrap.com.au is an independent information resource built to help people understand the grades of stainless steel scrap, how to tell stainless from ordinary steel and 304 from 316 and 430, where stainless scrap comes from, how to keep it separate and how buyers test and price it.
Why We Built This
Stainless steel is the scrap that people most often sell at the wrong price, because it looks like ordinary steel and is lumped in with it. We built this site to explain, in plain language, how to spot it, test it and keep it separate, so that it earns what it should.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
SSScrap.com.au 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 stainless steel, ScrapTrade is where sorted stainless becomes offers from verified buyers, with transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
What We’re Not
We’re not a scrap buyer and we don’t handle transactions directly through this site — this is an information resource. For the actual buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
Stainless is worth sorting. ScrapTrade connects you with verified buyers, transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
