Material moves, money follows
A clear path from seller to buyer. The winner pays within 24 hours, we collect and weigh the lot, and seller proceeds release once it's fulfilled — so you can focus on material, not paperwork.
Demo showcase
Try the real screens yourself. Nothing in a demo is saved, posted, or sent.
A concierge can simplify listing, staging, and the use of our site for you or your office team.
Set your max price once and we offer for you on matching lots, up to your total.
See how offering on a lot works and where your offer stands.
Walk through listing your scrap so verified buyers can make offers.
Seller lists lot
Choose material type, upload photos, add weight specs and a starting offer. Your pickup location remains completely private.
Buyers make offers live
Verified buyers make competitive offers until the listing closes on its scheduled business day, between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM. When the timer closes, the highest offer wins if it meets the minimum price.
Buyer pays, we collect
The winner has 24 hours to complete checkout. Once payment clears, our driver picks up the lot, records weights and photos, and brings it to our facility.
Buyer collects
Collect your material from our facility. Seller proceeds are released after pickup, then paid out on request.
The flow in 30 seconds
1. List & Sell
Seller uploads specs, buyers compete anonymously, highest offer wins.
2. Pay & Collect
Winner checks out within 24 hours. Our driver picks the lot up and records weights and photos.
3. Pickup or Delivery
Buyer collects from our facility or requests a quoted delivery. Seller proceeds release after fulfillment. Deal done.
What each side gets
Anonymity, fairness, and absolute security for both. Here is how the network protects you.
For sellers
- Complete anonymity — buyers never see your facility or business name
- Proceeds after pickup — once we have collected the lot, your proceeds are released and you request payout when you are ready
- Speed — lots close on a published schedule, avoiding dragged-out negotiations
- No listing fees — commission only on completed winning offers. Free: 15–50% sliding. Pro: flat 15%. Champion: flat 10%.
- Pickup coordination — we dispatch our own fleet and schedule around your yard hours
For buyers
- Complete anonymity — sellers never see your downstream business identity
- Fair market index — open competitive offers reflect honest market value
- Pay on your terms — nothing is charged at close; you have 24 hours to check out after winning, by card or approved offline payment
- Simple fulfillment — we collect the lot from the seller; you pick up from our facility free of charge, or request a delivery quote
- Market transparency — public reference prices and the last completed sale for every material we accept.
Fee structure
No listing fees, no collection fees, no storage fees. We take a commission only on completed winning offers. Buyer premium is a separate flat charge added at checkout.
| Plan | Monthly | Seller commission | Buyer premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 15–50% sliding (50% at $0 → flat 15% at $1,000+) | 2% |
| Buyer Pro | $199/month | N/A — buyer plan | 1% |
| Seller Pro | $300/month | Flat 15% | N/A — seller plan |
| Champion | $449/month | Flat 10% | 0% — buy and sell from one account |
Settlement: Winning offer × listed quantity. Driver weights and photos are the operational audit trail — discrepancies are handled case by case, not an automatic reprice.
Payout: Seller proceeds are released after the lot is picked up and paid out on your request. No automatic transfer.
Buyer fulfillment: Pickup from the nearest UR facility is free of charge — bring your own truck or send a hired carrier. Want it brought to you? Request a delivery: we aim to quote within 24 hours, you accept and pay the quote, and we haul it with our own driver or a third-party carrier.
Example timeline and net proceeds
How a 2,000 lb aluminum lot compares to a local yard offer — and what the seller actually takes home.
| Scenario | Gross value | Commission | Seller nets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local yard spot quote (example) | $1,400 | — | $1,400 |
| UR marketplace — Free plan 2,000 lb × $0.90/lb = $1,800 clearing price | $1,800 | 15% = $270 | $1,530 |
| UR marketplace — Seller Pro Same lot, same clearing price, flat 15% | $1,800 | 15% = $270 | $1,530 |
| UR marketplace — Champion Same lot, same clearing price, flat 10% | $1,800 | 10% = $180 | $1,620 |
