Two kabadiwalas can offer very different money for the same scrap. The difference usually comes from weighing accuracy, rate transparency and how quickly you are paid.
Ask for a digital scale and watch the reading. Heavy items should be weighed in front of you. A dealer who refuses is a red flag.
A trustworthy kabadiwala quotes the per-kg or per-piece rate before weighing. Compare it with the public rate table, such as our Today's Rates page.
Prefer a dealer who pays immediately in cash or UPI and offers doorstep pickup within your area, whether you live in Gomti Nagar, Aliganj or Chowk.
