Scrap yard management software, explained

Scrap yard management software is a platform that automates scale ticket processing, tracks inventory by material and grade, manages suppliers, handles dispatch, enforces quality control and generates invoices from one place. Scraplytics covers all of that in a single cloud platform.

Most yards are running within a business day. Creating the account takes two minutes, configuring materials, grades and prices takes under an hour, and you can write your first digital scale ticket the same day. Onboarding help is included on every plan.

It depends on your indicator, and we would rather tell you that up front than promise a plug-and-play that does not exist. Scraplytics is cloud software, so it cannot open a serial port in your scale house by itself. Every yard can weigh from day one by entering gross and tare on a tablet, with the ticket handling net weight, deductions and pricing. For automatic capture we expose an ingest API and a live reading feed, and the small piece that reads your specific indicator and posts to it is scoped per site. Tell us the make and model and you will get a straight answer on what that takes.

Yes. Scraplytics has a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and the trial is the full product. Every module is included, so you can evaluate the whole platform rather than a cut-down version of it.

Yes. Multi-location management is included at no extra cost. Each yard can carry its own materials, prices and users, or share settings across locations, and consolidated reporting gives you the group view.

Support is available by email, live chat and phone, and every plan includes the help centre and documentation. Enterprise adds a dedicated account manager, contractual response times and on-site training.

Scraplytics is built for ferrous and non-ferrous scrap yards, auto salvage yards, construction and demolition recyclers, e-waste processors and municipal recycling programmes. Materials, grading and compliance rules adapt to each operation type and to the country it runs in.

Scraplytics is one Unlimited plan at $100 per month, or $1,000 per year, with every feature and unlimited locations, users and tickets. The only other option is Enterprise, for operators that need custom integrations, a dedicated account manager and a contractual SLA. Every account starts on a 14-day free trial and can be cancelled at any time.
