About the Scrap Market in Tumkur
Tumkur (Tumakuru), an emerging industrial city in Karnataka just 70 km from Bangalore, has a growing scrap market driven by its coconut processing, granite quarrying, and expanding manufacturing sector. The city's industrial areas house auto ancillary units, and the upcoming Tumkur Smart City project is boosting construction activity. Granite quarrying in the region adds heavy equipment scrap.
Iron and steel from quarrying equipment and construction are the primary materials. Copper from electrical infrastructure, aluminum from the growing industrial sector, and coconut processing equipment scrap are traded. Tumkur's prices sit 5-7% below Bangalore but benefit from spillover demand from Bangalore's industrial belt, keeping rates competitive for the region.
Key scrap areas include SS Puram market, Sira Gate area, and dealers near the KIADB zone. Most dealers pick up from 15 kg. Cash is standard. Tumkur's proximity to Bangalore means sellers can sometimes get better rates from Bangalore dealers willing to pick up from Tumkur for larger quantities.
