Looking for PCB scrap buyers in the UK? Repair Price helps you identify, sort and seek a valuation for unwanted printed circuit boards. We handle enquiries for boards from computers, servers, telecoms equipment, industrial controls and electronics repair work. Your price depends on the board grade, fitted components, attachments, weight and collection requirements.
This page focuses on selling and recycling graded printed circuit boards. For prices across a broader mix of electronic boards and components, use our UK scrap circuit board price guide.
The figures below reflect the five PCB listings displayed on this page on 26 September 2026. They are a dated reference, not a guaranteed offer. Send photos and an estimated weight to obtain a current valuation before delivery or collection.
| PCB grade | Identifying features | Displayed price, 26 September 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Grade 1 without attachments | Dense ICs or EPROMs and substantial visible gold plating | £4.15 per kg |
| Grade 2 without attachments | Gold-plated contacts with many ICs on both sides | £3.15 per kg |
| Grade 3 without attachments | Gold-plated contacts with many ICs mainly on one side | £1.75 per kg |
| Grade 4 without attachments | Few ICs or EPROMs; power boards excluded from this listing | £1.95 per kg |
| Grade 4 with attachments | Partly visible gilding and relatively few electronic components | £1.75 per kg |
The Grade 4 listings have different rates because they describe different material conditions. Do not combine them into one quoted price. The individual listings below retain their full descriptions and purchase terms.
If you want to sell PCB boards, start with a buyer or recycling provider able to grade the specific material you hold. A box of clean, component-rich boards needs a different assessment from a mixed load containing power boards, batteries, steel frames and complete devices. Repair Price helps route your enquiry using the board type, quantity and location you provide. Our UK circuit board recycling service explains collection and processing options.
For a useful first assessment, provide photographs of both sides of representative boards, the approximate weight of each group, the equipment they came from and your postcode. State whether you need collection. A buyer can then explain the likely grade, any preparation requirements and the terms of a firm offer.
Board size alone does not set the price. PCB buyers assess the mix of components and recoverable materials, then consider the cost of sorting and processing the load.
Compare component-specific material separately using our motherboard recycling price guide, CPU and IC scrap values and RAM recycling prices.
For practical preparation and recovery information, read the UK printed circuit board recycling guide. If a load includes complete devices, start with the electronics recycling service. For a wider view of material values, check the e-waste price pages.
Collection depends on the board grade, total weight, packaging and distance. Smaller lots may suit an agreed delivery route. A business clearing boxes or pallets should provide its access details and approximate quantities before requesting collection.
Businesses with board stock around Manchester can also review the Manchester PCB collection guide. Separate local service information is available for Manchester PCB pickup, local board valuations and printed board recovery.
Acceptance and collection terms depend on the buyer, material and location. Send your weight and postcode before assuming a collection is available.
Buyers assess board grade, fitted components, attachments, contamination, quantity and current processing costs. Two boards from similar equipment may receive different grades.
Ask the buyer first. Some grades require bulky metal attachments to be removed, but stripping valuable chips or contacts may change how the remaining board is valued.
Yes, identify them as separate groups when asking for a quote. Compare the mobile phone board price page and the server back panel price page before combining material.
