A little preparation goes a long way. Follow these tips to get the most money for your scrap metal when you sell to MOME Metals.
Separate copper from aluminum, brass from steel, and so on. Sorted metals are graded individually and command higher prices than mixed loads. Even rough sorting into general categories can significantly increase your total payout.
Strip away plastic, rubber, wood, insulation, and other non-metallic materials attached to your scrap. Clean metal is worth more because it reduces our processing costs. For example, stripped copper wire pays significantly more than insulated wire.
A simple refrigerator magnet is one of the most useful tools for sorting scrap. If a magnet sticks, the metal is ferrous (iron or steel). If it does not stick, the metal is non-ferrous (copper, aluminum, brass, stainless). Non-ferrous metals are generally worth more per pound.
Keeping your ferrous metals (steel, iron, cast iron) separate from your non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum, brass, stainless steel, lead) ensures each category is weighed and priced correctly. This separation alone can make a meaningful difference in your total payment.
State regulations that apply when selling scrap metal in Florida
Florida law requires all sellers to present a valid government-issued photo identification such as a driver's license, state ID, or passport at the time of each transaction.
You must be at least 18 years of age to sell scrap metal in the state of Florida. Minors cannot complete scrap metal transactions under Florida statutes.
Florida law requires that transactions over certain dollar thresholds be paid by check rather than cash. The check is mailed to the address on your ID. This applies to regulated metals.
We are required to record seller information, a description of materials, and transaction details for each purchase as mandated by Florida Statute 538. This helps prevent theft and ensures compliance.
We accept all ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals including copper, aluminum, brass, bronze, stainless steel, steel, iron, wire, cable, lead, zinc, batteries, radiators, appliances, and mixed scrap. If it is metal, we buy it. We also accept items like old plumbing fixtures, HVAC units, electrical components, automotive parts, and metal furniture. If you are unsure whether we accept a particular item, call us and we will let you know.

Florida law requires a valid government-issued photo ID for all scrap metal transactions. Acceptable forms of identification include a Florida driver's license, Florida state ID card, US passport, or military ID. You must also be at least 18 years old. We record your identification information as required by Florida Statute 538 to help prevent the sale of stolen metals.
Scrap metal pricing is based on several factors: the type and grade of metal, current commodity market rates, the quantity you are selling, and the cleanliness of the material. Sorted and clean scrap with non-metal attachments removed typically commands higher prices than mixed or contaminated loads. We track market prices in real time and adjust our buy prices accordingly to ensure you receive a fair, competitive rate.
There is no minimum quantity. We welcome everyone from homeowners bringing in a few pounds of copper pipe or aluminum cans to large contractors and industrial operations delivering full truckloads of steel and mixed metals. Every bit of scrap has value and we are happy to purchase it, no matter the amount.
To maximize your payout, sort your metals by type (keep copper, aluminum, brass, and steel separate), remove all non-metal attachments like plastic, rubber, and wood, use a magnet to separate ferrous from non-ferrous metals, and strip insulation from copper wire when possible. Clean, sorted scrap is always worth more than mixed or contaminated material. Bringing in larger quantities also helps since you save on trips and we can sometimes offer better rates for volume.
