About the Scrap Market in Lunglei
Lunglei, the second-largest town in Mizoram, serves as a district headquarters in the state's southern hills where government institutions and small trading establishments form the economic base. Limited industrial activity means scrap generation is modest, yet construction projects and vehicle servicing create niche opportunities for recyclers.
Iron roofing sheets, aluminium window frames, and copper wiring from government building maintenance are the main scrap materials in circulation. Due to high transportation costs to plains markets, prices remain lower than national averages—iron at ₹18–23 per kg and copper at ₹380–460 per kg.
The logistical challenge of moving scrap out of Lunglei's hilly terrain makes volume accumulation especially important: sellers should target minimum lots of 300–500 kg to justify the transport economics. Connecting with Aizawl-based dealers who operate periodic collection runs through southern Mizoram is the most practical path to realizing fair market value.
