Have old brass lying around? Brass scrap sellers trust Johnny Metal Recycling to pay fairly. It’s surprising how much brass builds up over time: old taps, worn-out fittings, leftover plumbing parts, bits and pieces from a renovation.
Most people don’t realise that a pile is actually worth decent money. At Johnny Metal Recycling, we buy brass scrap in Melbourne, come straight to your door, and pay you cash before we leave. Simple as that.
Brass Is One of the Best Metals You Can Sell — Here's Why
Not all scrap metals are created equal. Brass sits near the top of the list when it comes to consistent value, and that’s purely down to what it’s made of. This alloy includes copper, which is one of the most demanding metals in the world of recycling. So, whenever you go to the market to sell brass, a good amount is waiting for you. It circulates valuable metals in nature.
If money is not considered, recycling brass scrap in Melbourne is a sustainable choice, too. So when you sell your brass through JMR, you’re doing the right thing on both counts.
What Kinds of Brass Scrap in Melbourne Does JMR Buy?
We’re always interested in buying brass alloy. Read below to understand what we buy –
Yellow Brass —
This is the most common type. It is extremely recyclable and golden- bright in colour. In your home or workplace, everyday fittings, including electrical parts and taps, may include this alloy.
Red Brass —
A richer, deeper colour due to its higher copper content. Red brass turns up in quality plumbing components, water meters, and valves — and it fetches a notably stronger price because of it.
Hard Brass —
Dense and tough, hard brass comes from mechanical and heavy-duty industrial parts. It’s heavier than most and priced accordingly.
Industrial and Commercial Brass —
If you’re clearing out a factory, warehouse, or trade workshop, chances are there’s industrial brass in the mix — hydraulic components, machine parts, manifolds, and more. We collect commercial volumes of brass scrap in Melbourne with ease.
Everyday Household Brass —
Door handles, cabinet hardware, decorative pieces, old light fittings, kitchen and bathroom fixtures — if it’s been sitting in a box since the last reno, it’s probably worth selling.
Real Value for Real People — How JMR Gets It Right
A lot of scrap buyers offer flat, generic rates that don’t reflect what your brass is actually worth on the day. JMR does things differently. Every quote we give is based on live commodity pricing, which means your payout moves with the market — not against you.
We’ve been doing this for over six years across Melbourne, and the reason people keep coming back is straightforward — we’re honest, we show up on time, and we pay what we say we will. No last-minute adjustments, no surprise deductions, no drama.
