About

Scraplift

Features
Read full description

Built for the people who haul the metal. Scraplift shows what the yards near you pay for your metals, ranks them by what you clear after fuel costs, and keeps a record of every haul you sell. YARD PRICES NEAR YOU Set your ZIP and a radius. Each yard in the list is marked: prices posted by the yard, verified by a hauler's weigh ticket in the last 14 days, or unverified. BEST PAY AFTER FUEL COSTS The yards on a map, and a list ranked by what your haul pays minus the fuel to get there. Sometimes the closer yard wins. SCAN A PIECE Scan a motor, a radiator or a bundle of wire. Lens names the item and the metals in it, estimates its weight, and shows what it pays near you. For an appliance, it shows stripped against whole. WEIGH TICKETS Scan the ticket after you sell. Its lines go into your earnings log, and you can fix any number before you save. EARNINGS Every sale in one place, with weekly earnings, pounds hauled, average price per pound and CSV export for your books. YARD PROFILES Address, phone, directions and the price book for each yard near you. FREE Sign up with your phone. Prices are estimates, not a quote. What a yard pays depends on grade, contamination and weight, so confirm with the yard before you drive. Questions: support@scraplift.app Terms of Use (EULA): https://scraplift.app/terms
