About the Scrap Market in Zunheboto
Zunheboto, the headquarters of Zunheboto district in Nagaland, is a remote hill town where the economy centres on agriculture, government services, and small-scale timber operations. The limited industrial base and challenging mountainous terrain make scrap markets here quite different from mainland Indian towns.
GI roofing sheets, mild steel structural members from government building maintenance, and copper electrical cable from grid extension projects are the main scrap categories. Prices tend to be depressed compared to national averages—iron at ₹18-₹22 per kg and copper at ₹550-₹600 per kg—due to high transport costs out of the hill district.
Sellers with large quantities should explore joint transport arrangements to Dimapur, Nagaland's commercial hub approximately 150 km away, where scrap prices run ₹5-8 per kg higher for most categories. For small lots, the most practical approach is selling to local hardware shop owners who purchase scrap opportunistically to supplement their main business.
