Estimate what your scrap metal is worth in AED, per kilogram, tonne, or pound. AI-powered, updated daily, free to use. No sign-up required.
The UAE, particularly Dubai and the free zones around ports like Jebel Ali, functions less as a scrap-generating economy in its own right and more as a regional trading and logistics hub, connecting scrap buyers and sellers across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia. Its free zones and port infrastructure make it a practical staging point for consolidating and re-exporting scrap shipments rather than the origin of most of the material itself. If you're trading scrap in or through the UAE, the calculator gives you an AED reference point, but freight and re-export logistics through the region's ports are often as important to your final margin as the base material price.
Scrap prices in the UAE are typically quoted in AED per kilogram or tonne, both available in ScrapTrade's calculator.
Prices are AI-generated indicative estimates in AED, refreshed at least daily. They're a useful starting reference, not a locked-in trading price. Actual yard and export prices vary by grade, volume, and buyer.

Its ports and free zones make it an efficient consolidation and re-export point for the wider Middle East, Africa, and South Asia region, rather than because the UAE itself produces large volumes of scrap. If you're exporting from or through the region, factor in that logistics role, not just the local market price.
