About the Scrap Market in Palampur

Palampur, often called the tea capital of North India, graces Himachal Pradesh's Kangra Valley with its plantation economy, growing tourism sector, and a cluster of educational and research institutions. These diverse activities generate varied scrap streams, from hospitality equipment to laboratory instruments.

Steel and iron scrap from hotel renovations and institutional upgrades fetches INR 24–28 per kg, while copper from electrical systems trades at INR 550–680 per kg. Aluminium from commercial kitchen equipment and old tea processing machinery commands INR 100–135 per kg, reflecting good demand from Pathankot-based dealers.

Hospitality businesses replacing kitchen equipment should obtain separate quotes for stainless steel and aluminium items, as mixing these metals into a single lot depresses the average price considerably. Tea estate managers can negotiate annual scrap contracts with dealers from Pathankot or Jalandhar who regularly service the Kangra valley circuit.
