# How to Sell Copper Scrap at the Best Price

Know your copper grades

- **Bare bright** — clean, shiny, uncoated wire (highest rate) - **#1 copper** — clean tubing, bus bar, no solder - **#2 copper** — painted, oxidised, or soldered pieces - **Insulated wire** — priced by recoverable copper percentage
