Scrap metal prices in Saudi Arabia continue to fluctuate based on global commodity markets, local demand, and the quality of the material being sold. If you are planning to sell copper, aluminum, iron, steel, or cable scrap in Dammam or the wider Eastern Province, understanding current market rates can help you get the best possible price for your material.
Copper Scrap Prices
Copper remains one of the most valuable metals in the scrap market. Clean, bare bright copper wire typically commands the highest prices, while copper mixed with insulation or other materials is priced lower due to the extra processing required. Prices for copper have remained strong in 2026 due to continued demand from construction and electrical industries.
Aluminum Scrap Prices
Aluminum scrap, including cans, sheets, extrusions, and automotive parts, continues to see steady demand. Clean, sorted aluminum fetches better prices than mixed or contaminated loads.
Iron and Steel Scrap Prices
Iron and steel scrap, including structural steel, rebar, and machinery parts, make up a large volume of the scrap trade in the Eastern Province. Prices are generally more stable compared to non-ferrous metals like copper and aluminum, but still respond to shifts in regional construction activity.
Cable and Battery Scrap
Cable scrap value depends heavily on the copper or aluminum content inside the insulation. Battery scrap, particularly lead-acid batteries, also holds consistent value due to recycling demand.
Factors That Affect Scrap Prices
Several factors influence the price you receive for your scrap metal:
- Purity and cleanliness of the material
- Volume being sold
- Current global commodity market rates
- Sorting and separation of different metal types
- Transportation and pickup logistics
