TireScrap.com.au is an independent information resource built to help people understand how scrap tyre disposal and recycling actually works in Australia — costs, regulations, and where any recoverable value comes from.
Why We Built This
Tyre disposal gets confusing fast — why does it cost money instead of paying out, what actually happens after collection, and where does any real value come from? We built this site to answer those questions plainly, without vague marketing language.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
TireScrap.com.au is part of the ScrapTrade network — an online scrap trading marketplace connecting verified buyers and sellers of scrap metal, e-waste, batteries, and more. While tyres themselves aren’t traded on ScrapTrade, the steel wire and belting recovered during tyre recycling is genuine scrap metal — and that’s where the two connect. Businesses and recyclers who process tyres and recover steel can list that material on ScrapTrade to reach verified buyers directly.
What We’re Not
We’re not a tyre recycler, collector, or disposal service, and we don’t handle or transport tyres through this site — this is an information resource. For scrap metal buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
If your tyre recycling or disposal process recovers scrap steel, ScrapTrade connects that material with verified buyers through escrow-protected payments and transparent weighing.
