Questions

Selling catalytic converters in Durban: common questions

Who buys catalytic converters in Durban?
PGM Recycling buys catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters in Durban direct, for its own account, so no middleman takes a cut. Message 084 306 6660 on WhatsApp with a photo of the unit and its reference number. One of our own agents collects free of charge, prices each unit in front of you and pays on the spot with an invoice.
How much is a scrap catalytic converter worth in Durban?
It depends on the model. The value is the platinum, palladium and rhodium in the substrate, which differs widely from one converter to the next, and on that day's metal prices. Each unit is identified by its reference number against our database of more than 35,000 converters. Collection in Durban is free and nothing is deducted for transport or testing, so the price you are quoted is the price you are paid.
Do you collect a single converter in Durban?
Yes. There is no minimum quantity. One converter from a scrapped car is welcome, and so is a workshop bin or a scrapyard lot. For bulk loads we simply confirm the collection time first.
What do I need to sell a catalytic converter?
Your South African ID, driver's licence or passport. South African law requires the buyer to record the seller of precious-metal-bearing material, and PGM Recycling is registered with the South African Diamond and Precious Metals Regulator (SADPMR). You receive an invoice for every sale.
Which converters do you buy?
All of them: ceramic and metallic converters and diesel particulate filters, petrol and diesel, from any car, bakkie, taxi, truck or bus. Damaged, cut-open or partly empty units and loose substrate still hold value and are still bought.
