Millberry vs. Mixed Cups — It Determines the Price
To get the highest list price, your copper must be “Millberry”.

  • Millberry: Peeled, shiny copper wire (from cable) thicker than 1.5 mm. No coatings, no scar, no oil. This pays best.
  • Mixing cups: Copper pipes with solders, oxidized copper or sheet metal. Gives a slightly lower price.

Should you scale the cable yourself?
A common question is whether it pays to peel cable to access the copper.

  • Rule of thumb: If you have machine scaling, it often pays off.
  • Unpeeled cable: Often contains 40— 60% copper. We buy your cable just as it is and pay based on the copper content.
