How the price is set

There is no single price. It depends on four things, which is why a photo always helps.

Grade
Material is sorted into grades by composition and condition.
Purity
Contamination — iron, plastic, insulation, paint — lowers the price because it requires extra processing.
Quantity
Larger quantities are priced differently from one-off deliveries.
World market
Buying prices follow the world metal exchanges and therefore change through the year.

In cash or by bank transfer as agreed, within 15 days of collection at the latest.

What is scrap lead?
Lead is a silvery-blue to bluish-grey lustrous metal. It is soft and heavy, has a low melting point and is mechanically weak. Compared with other metals it is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. After iron and zinc it is the cheapest technical metal and has very wide use, though it is increasingly displaced because of its toxicity. Its largest application is in vehicle batteries.

For an estimate, attach a photo of the material to your enquiry — it is the fastest route to a firm price.
