hi! my boss is starting his junkshop business and is encouring me and my husband to start also, though maybe not as big as his. the problem is i really dont know anything about the business. where do i start? what can i buy and sell? are there different kinds of alloy/copper/plastics? where do i go to sell what i bought? sorry, im really confused. i just really want to try this coz i know that w/ patience and perseverance i can make this work.

thank you so much for any reply or comment!

You can start by making inquiries from the recyling center list that I posted. They are more experienced and updated on the latest trends about recycling/junkshop business. You might even get the pricelist and types of recycling materials to trade with them.

You’re a bit lucky since your boss is into the same business, and he’s encouraging you to go into it as well. That’s means you can have all the advice you can get from him firsthand!

Goodluck on your business and regards.

i and my husband also plans to put up a junkshop business. we only have limited spaces. i already printed the list of junkshop owners that you provided. i’m browsing the net to get ideas to start this, but i know it is much better if we attend a seminar on how to start and operate this business. please give us contacts, where we can attend briefing and seminars so we can start with good step.

thanks for time to reply. GOD BLESS..

Hi..Would like to ask some info.. Actually my mother already started her junk shop way back 2004 (as far as I remember). Until now she is still delivering the items to a second party dealer, thus reducing her profit. Now I had given the list of BIGGER players for this business but she wants to know how much is the least quantity they require (bulk selling). One more thing, is there a standard pricing of these materials, say plastics = Php/kl, carton = Php/kl or is it the marketing strategy of the shop owner? I’m working on a company here in Laguna and I’m thinking of getting into this business. Any information / tips will be very much appreciated…

Thanks in Advance…

helo po, i just want to ask kung sa cebu na recycling materials collector, lahat ba scrap kinucollect ba nila or they are just collecting aluminum can as they are stated in thier address..salamat po..

menmen Says: 7/05/2007 01:35:00 PM

hi! Dami din pala interested magput-up ng scrap business. I’ll share some info, baguhan pa lang kasi ako sa ganitong business, as in mini-junkshop lang po iyong pinu-put up ko.

Regarding sa capital, well, depende sa inyo iyon. You have to think kung anong klase ng scrap ang icocollect mo: scrap metals, scrap plastic, scrap paper, or bottles. Iyong ibang junkshops, halo-halo na…pero kelangan malaki ang space mo. Pag scrap paper, siyempre kelangan bodega mo may bubong (esp now tag-ulan/typhoon months). Pwede na mag-start ng P10,000. You have to have your own timbangan, at least 60 kilos which is i think aroung P2,000.

Scrap metals include copper, dilaw, radiator, condenser, aluminum, stainless, beverage cans, caps, kaldero, zinc, lead, bakal, yero, lata/tansan.

Scrap plastics include: PET bottles (mineral bottle), and sibak (plastic ng alcohol, shampoo, lotion, ketchup etc).

Scrap paper – karton, newspaper, white paper (bond paper, computer paper…anything basta white paper).

Bote: gin roundpost, gin 4×4, angelito, catsup, lapad, longneck na emperador/tanduay, gsm long neck, gsm solo.

Scrap batteries: 1sm, 2sm, 3sm, 6sm, 2d, 4d, 8d, snf.

Iyong price depende sa location eh. Sa amin kasi province kaya mas mababa compared sa manila. Sa PET bottles for example, ang bilihan d2 sa amin is P8/kilo then pag ipapasa sa junkshop around P12/kilo. May gain ka na P4/kilo. Sa bakal naman for example, bili mo is P9/kilo, then pag ipapasa mo sa junkshop, around P12/kilo.

i hope nakaprovide po ako ng konting information regarding sa junkshop business. okay po siya kasi sabi nga nila may pera sa basura, and it’s environment-friendly pa kasi instead na sinusunog ng mga tao ang mga scrap nila, bilhin na lang natin, magkakapera pa sila (xempre pati tayo hihihi).

Ingat lang po sa mga junk dealers na mataas ang bili, baka may daya sa timbangan (“baka” lang po ha at saka hindi naman lahat) pero dapat before kayo magbenta ng nakolekta niyong scrap, timbangin niyo muna lahat and if pareho sa timbang ng junk dealer, well and good, if not, pumunta po kayo sa iba hehehe…

Hello to all. Im new here,was browsing and looking for a possible business which I could start. Im from pangasinan but currently based in manila because of work.I have a modest vacant lot in the province at hindi ko alam kung ano ang gagawin. I thought of piggery or poultry pero hindi pwede kasi residential yung area. Matagal ko ng pinag iisipan ang mag Junk shop pero wala akong idea at wala akong time mga research. Yung tito ay nag junk shop for a while, yung isang malaking Junk shop sa amin, pinuhunanan siya pero di siya maruong kaya walang nangyari. Ngayon naisip ko na i try ang junk shop. Sa pangasinan (manaoag, laoac, mangaldan area) po ba may malapit na recycling centers? Maraming Salamat. Sabi nga nila ” May Pera sa Basura” – Jepoy

Actually i’m currently working in a trading company (im a single mom, kaya kalangan magkaroon ng other source),, to tell you yong mga empty boxes from our shipment & scrap paper tinatapon lang namin syempre may makikinabang din non, but ngayon i realized na marami akong maiipon kaysa ibasura lang namin.

Wala pa akong idea about this kind of business but gusto kong i-try, hope i could talk to someone concern para lalo ako maencourage na magsisimula pa lang.

hi. i am anthony, a UP student. Me and my groupmates are presently preparing a project proposal of establishing a junkshop business in a depressed baranggay here in Iloilo. Included in the proposal is a profitability analysis of the business. I would just like to ask if anyone can give us a copy of the financial statement of their junkshop business for our analysis. Please send it to my email toni_borbon@yahoo.com. We would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

And also would like to know the price of the chopped copper wire (length 26 mm, width 2.2 mm, thickness 0.60 to 0.69 mm. We also would like to have an idea about the approximate price of those items above. We are located in Southern Mindanao Thank you in advance.

Sa mga naghahanap ng training sa pag-jujunkshop, let’s join forces. Sa TLRC nagcoconduct sila, pero kailangan atleast 5 participants. Last July nagconduct sila at base dun sa posting nila, training includes field-trip sa isang junkshop kaya mukhang interesante talaga. Sayang lng nung nkita ko yung site nila tapos na yung training for July. Nagrelease n sila ng courses for October(http://www.tlrc.gov.ph/training.html) kaso walang sched for junkshop. Kung may interesadong mag-enrol, dalawa na kami ng aking may-bahay, 3 na lang tuloy na. D ko alam exact fee pero ang natatandaan ko 3,xxx. Email me at jeffresano@yahoo.com.

Meron rin silang e-Technobank para sa mga malayo sa Manila, meron dung instructional material sa pagse setup ng junkshop. Kabuhayan Card is 100 pesos, yung pdf file ay 30 pesos for download. Mura na para sa 30 pesos, dahil detalyado talaga. Eto yung content:
I Relevance of Business; II Registration and Permits; III Capitalization; IV Location/Site of the Business;
V Manpower and Equipment; VI Systematic Operation of the Business; VII Items/Materials for recycling
