Casablanca is Morocco's economic capital, its largest city and its main port — and therefore the country's biggest source of scrap metal in Casablanca: factories, construction sites, warehouses, garages, the port and industrial zones produce tonnes of metals every day. Whether you are a business or a household, selling your scrap in Casablanca is simple: sort, estimate, collect. MOUMETAL buys your metals in Casablanca and across the region, with a free estimate, transparent weighing and home pickup. Here is where scrap is found in Casablanca, what metals to sell and how it works.
Where is scrap metal found in Casablanca?
Casablanca concentrates most of Morocco's industry, and each zone produces its own metals:
- Aïn Sebaâ: the city's oldest industrial zone — factories, workshops, depots — with regular flows of steel, copper and aluminium.
- Sidi Bernoussi: industry, logistics and warehouses, with loads of sheet metal, racking, cables and machines.
- Bouskoura: the fast-growing industrial zone south of the city, with recent factories and new construction sites.
- Nouaceur and Midparc: aerospace and its subcontractors — aluminium, titanium, machining offcuts — around Mohammed V airport. See our article on scrap from aerospace and airports.
- The port of Casablanca: lifting equipment, containers, metal structures, shipyards — our article on scrap from ports and shipyards details these flows.
- Construction sites: building and renovation across the city — reinforcing steel, copper, metal joinery — see our articles on scrap from building renovation and scrap from building demolition.
- Dar Bouazza and the outskirts: workshops, depots and construction sites growing fast around the city — this is where MOUMETAL is based, on Route Moulay Thami.
Our scrap metal in Casablanca page presents the service in detail, and our article on scrap metal in Tangier shows the same logic in another major Moroccan city.
What metals can you sell in Casablanca?
All metals sell in Casablanca, and the city produces every kind:
- Steel and iron: the main volume — reinforcing steel, frameworks, sheet metal, machines, chassis. See our article on scrap from steelworks and foundries.
- Copper: cables, pipework, motors, transformers — the most valuable metal. See our article on buying copper in Morocco.
- Aluminium: profiles, joinery, rims, machining offcuts, cables. See our article on buying aluminium in Morocco.
- Stainless steel: professional kitchens, food-industry equipment, pipework — see our article on buying stainless steel in Morocco.
- Brass and bronze: taps, fittings, plumbing parts — see our article on buying brass and bronze.
- Used batteries: cars, trucks, forklifts, UPS units — see our article on buying used batteries in Morocco.
- Electric motors: motors, pumps, compressors — see our article on valorising used electric motors.
To identify each metal before selling, our guide on sorting metals in a business gives the complete method.
Selling your scrap in Casablanca: businesses and households
The process is the same for a factory and for a household, at a different scale:
- Sort: separate metals by family — steel, copper, aluminium, stainless steel, batteries — and never mix batteries with standard scrap. A sorted load always valorises better than a mix.
- Estimate: describe your stock — types of metals, approximate quantities, address — and MOUMETAL gives you a free, no-obligation estimate.
- Collect: we come with the right truck, including for heavy and bulky loads. Weighing is done on site, in front of you, in full transparency.
- Get paid and traced: you are paid quickly, and you receive the tracking slip proving collection and destination to approved channels.
For households, home pickup of scrap metal in Casablanca is possible: a load of a few hundred kilos — old radiators, sheet metal, cables, appliances out of service — is enough to organise a collection. For businesses, we organise regular, planned collections. Our scrap collection and removal page details the service.
How is the price of scrap metal in Casablanca determined?
This is the question everyone asks in Casablanca. The answer comes down to a few factors, with no published tariff, because the price of scrap metal in Casablanca moves with the metals market. Every load gets a free estimate, on site or on description. Here is what counts:
- Weight and sorting: a load sorted by metal always valorises better than a mix. This is the number one factor, in Casablanca as elsewhere.
- The nature of the metals: copper and stainless steel weigh heavily in the estimate, aluminium follows, steel and cast iron make up the volume.
- Metal prices: copper, aluminium and steel are quoted on international markets. When prices rise, the value of your stock rises with them.
- Load volume: a regular stock — a factory producing every month, a site being cleared — valorises better than an isolated load, because collection is simpler to organise.
- Distance and access: a load that is easy to reach, at ground level or in a yard, is collected faster than a load to dismantle at height — which is why describing the site at first contact matters.
To understand more broadly how a scrap dealer sets its estimates, read our article on the price of scrap metal in Morocco: the same principles apply — weight, sorting, metal prices — with no published tariff, per kilo or per tonne.

Casablanca and its sector: Salmia, the port and the industrial zones
You cannot talk about scrap in Casablanca without talking about Salmia: Africa's largest market for used car parts, which has structured Morocco's spare-parts trade for decades. Its announced move to a new site in Médiouna, and the dismantling of the Dallas site, mark a turning point: the sector is becoming formal, moving and professionalising. At the same time, the port of Casablanca regularly sells its lifting-equipment scrap by tender, and a first industrial vehicle-dismantling centre has opened in the city.
For Casablanca businesses, the lesson is clear: the formal, traced, professional channel is the one that is growing — and that is the one MOUMETAL offers, with a free estimate, transparent weighing and a tracking slip for every collection. Our articles on automotive scrap in Morocco and scrap from large retail complete this Casablanca picture.
