Quebec Scrap Metal Prices - Canada

Before you even begin to consider selling scrap metal for money in the province of Quebec, it is important to understand each of the laws in place currently. Canada is quite a unique country in that it, along with the United Staets, has laws in each of its provinces. These laws can be very relaxed in some places, however others can have super strict restrictions. Some people wonder why these vary so much and the answer is quite simple to these queries. This is ultimately because theft of metal from people and busineses varies from place to place.

Quebec has seen a fair amount of metal theft in the past and so has some pretty harsh laws in place. While these pieces of legislature have little impact on big businesses trading their scrap metal to dealers or local metal recycling yards, they have a huge impact on individuals trying to sell metal. Almost every province in Canada has a prerequisite of a photograph of the trader, validation of identification via a passport or driving license and weighing of metal to be sold. Once these laws have been adhered to, it is easy to get your cash and be on your way in Quebec. Some provinces have restrictions on how people can be paid for their scrap, in Quebec you are still entitled to cash and so that is great.

Next, it is imperative to know where the best scrap yards are Quebec, as this will ensure that you get a good amount of money for your metal. We have been all over the province to find the best scrap yards in terms of pricing and customer service and found that most of them are situated within the city. However, a few were situated in more rural areas too. Our favourites were; Kenny U-Pull (Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures), Thibaudeau Metal (Quebec City) and Kenny U-Pull (Levis). All three of these recycling facilities and metal dealers had great prices on offer and as a result we would recommend any of them.
