Maine scrap metal laws

In the state of Maine demand for metal, and thus scrap metal, remains high as ever. Before starting a scrapper’s career you need to first take the time to learn the scrap metal laws in the region.

Below is a list of basic scrap metal  laws and regulations in Maine:

  1. The seller will not be able to complete a transaction without a drivers license, ID card, consulate ID or passport.
  2. The seller must allow a copy of identification documents, and also the description and photograph of the material.
  3. The payment restriction laws are optional in Maine. Scrap yards may choose to pay by check made out to the seller.
  4. Maine requires yards to tag-and-hold certain materials for a 3-day period of time to give law enforcement time to locate possibly stolen material matching that description.
  5. Maine requires every purchase of scrap metal to also have the customer or driver’s vehicle information recorded.

Maine has really reasonable laws for anyone selling scrap legally. This area is a great place to be if you are interested in selling scrap metal.
