ScrapTrade.global is an independent information resource built to help people understand how cross-border and international scrap metal trade actually works — customs, export permits, currency conversion, and tariffs — for anyone dealing with scrap that crosses a national border.
Why We Built This
International scrap trade genuinely differs from domestic trading — customs, permits, currency, and cross-border trust all add real complexity that’s rarely explained clearly. We built this site to walk through what actually matters, honestly, for anyone dealing with scrap that crosses a border.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
ScrapTrade.global 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 understanding cross-border trade honestly, ScrapTrade is where you connect with buyers and sellers directly: list your material, compare real offers, and get paid through secure escrow with transparent weighing.
What We’re Not
We’re not a customs broker, freight forwarder, or legal advisor, and we don’t handle transactions directly through this site — this is an information resource. For actual export compliance advice, consult a qualified customs broker; for buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
Cross-border scrap trade involves genuine complexity — customs, permits, currency, and logistics. ScrapTrade connects verified buyers and sellers with transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
