About the Scrap Market in Pallikonda

Pallikonda, a town in Vellore district of Tamil Nadu, benefits from its position within the leather goods manufacturing corridor that extends from Ambur to Vaniyambadi. Tannery machinery scrap, chrome-processing equipment waste, and expanding residential construction together sustain the local scrap trade.

Chrome-plated rollers and stainless steel processing vats from tanneries are high-value scrap items, while general MS scrap from construction sites sells at ₹25–₹30 per kg. Leather industry machinery scrap, often in alloy steel grades, fetches ₹35–₹50 per kg from dealers who specialise in industrial equipment recycling.

Environmental regulations governing tannery waste disposal are stringent in this region; ensuring that scrap metal is free from chemical contamination before sale protects both seller and buyer from regulatory complications. The Vellore and Ranipet recycling clusters, within 30–40 km, provide competitive outlet options.
