How selling works
Solids only. Reviewed for reuse before scrap — strongest offers when certified and clearly identifiable. Reuse before melt. No auto-buy.
- Separate solidsPlate drops, remnants, bar ends, billets, plate cutoffs, solid stock — keep them out of chips, turnings, and swarf.
- ID + photosAlloy/grade if known, sizes or weight, clear photos (stamps/labels). Mill certs / MTRs / heat docs raise the band; unlabeled may get an ID hold. No scale? Estimate the weight from its dimensions.
- Ownership + composeFill the form, check ownership, submit — opens email to buyers@machineshopscrap.com with a structured body.
- Human reviewWe review geometry, segregation, and identity. Remachinable solids are reuse stock for another machinist — not melt-first scrap.
- Offer after reviewReuse before scrap when the economics work. No public price board, no payment at submit. Pickup vs ship is case-by-case — see shop remnant program for recurring labeled crates.

What happens after I submit the sell form?
Submitting opens your email client with a structured message to buyers@machineshopscrap.com. This page does not process payments or auto-buy. A human reviews photos, sizes, alloy/ID, certs, and ownership. You get a reuse-first offer after review, or a decline / ID-hold note if the lot is unclear. No public price board.
Why is ownership certification required?
We only review lots from the lawful owner or an authorized agent. Checking the ownership box is required before compose. False ownership information can mean a declined offer and referral where appropriate. Business address and contact details on the form support that review.
Do you auto-buy or pay scrap-yard cash on the spot?
No. Offers are after human review. We value remachinable solids as reusable stock when the economics work — highest when certified (MTRs / mill certs / heat docs) and clearly identifiable. Unlabeled or uncertain solids may get a lower band or an ID hold. See how we value.
What should I include so the offer is better?
Clear photos (stamps, labels, overall pile), approximate sizes / piece counts / weight, alloy/grade if known, certs Y·Partial·N, heat/lot if available, and whether streams are segregated. Remachinable geometry beats crushed melt feedstock. Details and grades: how we value. Certs and heat numbers: mill certs and your offer. Full bars from a canceled job: selling surplus bar stock. What we buy / don’t: solids and not accepted.
Do you pick up, or do I ship?
Case-by-case after a first-lot review. Prefer-pickup and seller-ship are both options on the form — we do not claim free bins or nationwide container routes until logistics are real. Recurring labeled crates: see remnant program.
Can I send chips, turnings, swarf, or insert scrap through this form?
No. Solids only — plate drops, remnants, bar ends, billets, solid stock, specialty solids, solid-carbide rods/blanks. Chips, turnings, swarf, mixed piles, and insert scrap are declined at intake; route those to a local scrap yard. Carbide inserts: solid carbide. Specialty Ti / Ni / tool steel: specialty solids.
