* Last shipment is the most recent shipment shown on the ImportYeti company page (page-level), not necessarily for that specific importer. Shipment counts are all-time totals per relationship. HS codes are cited on the page or taken from ImportYeti's product search hint; see the notes column in the CSV.

What the US pays
scrap imports by material & country
Source: UN Comtrade public API — US-reported imports (US Census basis), customs value USD, Jan 2025 – Jul 2026.
| Country | Region | Material | Value USD | Net t | USD / lb | ≈ USD / 20ft (20 t) | YoY Jan–Jul |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Customs value is the US declared value (FOB basis), not the price paid to a specific supplier. USD/lb = value ÷ net weight; the 20-ft container figure assumes 20 t and is only indicative. Precious-metal scrap (HS 7112) per-kg values reflect gold/silver content and are not comparable. Aug–Sep 2026 were not yet published when collected. YoY compares Jan–Jul 2026 vs Jan–Jul 2025.
