65 suppliers are actively offering Aluminium Wheel Scrap, with 16 of them updating their listings in the last 30 days. This shows a steady level of engagement—suppliers are not just static, but actively refreshing their offers, which means buyers can expect current pricing and availability rather than outdated data. With 16 updates in the last month, the market remains responsive, even if overall interest has dipped. 415 listings are currently active, offering a wide range of scrap grades, weights, and packaging options. This depth means buyers can find a close match for their specific needs without having to start from scratch or rely on vague generalizations. The volume also suggests that suppliers treat this category as a priority, keeping it well-maintained and accessible. Suppliers come from 18 different countries, with Tanzania accounting for 16.9% of the total. This broad geographic spread gives buyers flexibility in sourcing—whether they're looking for cost advantages, specific regional quality standards, or supply chain resilience. A diverse origin base reduces dependency on any single country and opens up options for risk mitigation. Only 3 buyer inquiries came in over the last 30 days, a drop of 57.1% compared to the previous month. This sharp decline suggests reduced demand or market uncertainty, which could mean suppliers are holding back on new orders or buyers are being cautious. For those planning to source, now may be a good time to act before the market reactivates.

How stable is this supply base?

Is the market busy?

The established sellers have a longer track record, which helps buyers assess consistency, while newcomers have less history to evaluate. Review each supplier's listing history before contacting them.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Aluminium Wheel Scrap listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 19 October 2026 - 415 active listings, 106 buyer requests, 120 source documents, and 1,021 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Aluminium Wheel Scrap type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Aluminium Wheel Scrap, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
