About the Scrap Market in Pithoragarh

Perched in the Kumaon hills of Uttarakhand, Pithoragarh's scrap market is shaped by its position as a border-area administrative town with a significant military presence. Army installations, government offices, and a growing tourism sector all contribute to the local generation of recyclable materials.

Aluminium utensils, copper wiring, and tin roofing sheets are the primary scrap items traded here, while vehicle scrap from decommissioned government and military transport trickles in periodically. Copper scrap can fetch INR 540–600 per kg, though prices fluctuate more sharply than in plains markets due to supply irregularity.

Given Pithoragarh's hilly terrain and limited dealer network, sellers benefit from accumulating scrap over several weeks before arranging a sale. Coordinating with dealers who make scheduled collection rounds through hill towns is often more practical than transporting material independently down to the plains.
