About electric motor scrap
Electric motor scrap is the surplus and worn-out motors that come out of plants, equipment rebuilds and demolition. Each unit carries copper windings, aluminum or steel housings and laminated steel cores that are recovered by dismantling, shredding and sorting downstream.
We buy motors by the pound, mixed or sorted, and consolidate them into containers for export sale. Our export desk handles the buyer side, the booking and the documentation, so you deal with one party and one settlement.
Types we buy
| Grade / type | Forms accepted |
|---|---|
| Large motors | Industrial frames, any horsepower |
| Mixed motors | Unsorted loads by the pound |
| Small motors | Appliance and fractional-horsepower units |
| DC motors | Any size |
| AC fan motors | With or without fan assemblies |
Motors are accepted with housings on. Remove loose steel frames and cast bases if you want the higher motor grade.
