Scrap

Scrap Management - materials processed as scrap, destinations, value (or otherwise) etc.

Unwanted donations, semi-processed materials, and waste are processed as scrap by the Hackspace.

Examples of materials processed:

• Aluminium drinks cans
• Aluminium old heatsinks, scrap etc.
• Copper and brass, wire etc.
• Steel, and miscellaneous metals

When appropriate, quantities of any of the above are collected, they are weighed-in, the (small amount of) money generated being used for purchases for the Hackspace.

Materials not treated as scrap should be sorted into recyclable and general rubbish.

• Plastics of all kinds
• Steel food packaging and drinks cans
