About the scrap market in Multan
Multan, southern Punjab's largest city, anchors its scrap market on a foundation of fertiliser manufacturing, cotton ginning, glass production, and the thermal-power generation infrastructure along the Chenab River. The city's famed pottery and tile industry, alongside its massive mango and citrus cold-storage network, adds seasonal variation to scrap supply patterns. Ongoing construction of the Multan–Sukkur motorway section and urban-development projects sustain demand for recycled construction materials.
Boiler-tube and heat-exchanger steel from fertiliser plants commands PKR 108–128/kg, reflecting the premium quality of these alloy-steel grades. Cast-iron scrap from cotton-gin rollers and glass-furnace components trades at PKR 60–75/kg, while copper from power-plant switchgear and transformer scrap averages PKR 1,800–2,080/kg. Lead-acid battery scrap from the extensive fleet of goods vehicles transiting through Multan is another actively traded commodity at PKR 180–220/kg.
Sellers holding fertiliser-plant or power-station scrap should obtain a material-composition certificate, as documented alloy content significantly improves the offered price. The Hussain Agahi and Mumtazabad industrial zones are Multan's primary scrap-dealing centres, with experienced traders handling both domestic consumption and shipments to Lahore's larger recyclers. Avoiding sales during the extreme summer heat—when dealer activity slows and fewer competing buyers visit the market—helps secure more favourable terms.
Selling Newspaper Scrap in Multan, Punjab?
Newspaper scrap (also called ONP — Old Newspaper) is one of the most commonly recycled paper grades. Clean, dry newspapers bundled together fetch better rates than loose or wet paper. Magazines and glossy paper are a separate grade and typically worth less. The newspaper recycling market is seasonal — demand peaks before festive seasons when packaging material demand rises.
Pro Tip for Newspaper Sellers in Multan:
Bundle newspapers with string (not plastic tape) in 5-10 kg bundles. Keep them completely dry — even slightly damp paper loses 50% or more of its value. Accumulate at least 20-30 kg before calling a dealer for pickup to justify their transport cost.

Factors Affecting Newspaper Scrap Prices in Multan
Global demand for Newspaper significantly influences local prices in Multan, Punjab.

Dealers offering door-step pickup may adjust prices based on distance in Multan.
Understanding Newspaper Scrap Rates in Multan
The Newspaper scrap market in Multan, Punjab is shaped by a combination of global commodity trends and local economic factors. International benchmarks like the LME (London Metal Exchange) and PMEX (Pakistan Mercantile Exchange) set the baseline for Newspaper pricing. However, the actual rate you receive from a dealer in Multan also depends on local supply and demand, the proximity of recycling mills and foundries, and seasonal construction activity.
Newspaper scrap quality plays a significant role in pricing. Clean, sorted Newspaper scrap free of contaminants such as plastic, rubber, or mixed metals typically commands 10-15% higher rates than unsorted or mixed-grade material. If you're selling Newspaper scrap in Multan, taking the time to separate and clean your material can significantly improve the price you receive. Industrial sellers with consistent bulk volumes often negotiate premium rates with dealers, while household sellers benefit from comparing quotes across multiple verified buyers listed on GetScrapRate.
Logistics costs also impact the final price — dealers who offer doorstep pickup may factor in transportation expenses, especially for smaller quantities. For the best outcome when selling Newspaper scrap in Multan, we recommend accumulating at least 15-25 kg before contacting a dealer, checking our daily updated prices for market timing, and always insisting on digital weighing with a printed receipt for your records.
