Ouyang Xiadan is a well-known host in mainland China. She is deeply loved by the audience because of her talent in hosting programs, her fresh and elegant appearance, her gentle and capable voice, her sunny and handsome image, her professional skills and her relaxed and natural hosting style.
This look has fans curious about the highly anticipated film. [Overseas Impact] In addition to domestic movie fans, Hoyts, a subsidiary of Wanda Film, also launched this charity patch simultaneously in some cinemas in Australia and New Zealand.
In previous years during the Spring Festival, the most discussed topic was "Which movie to watch during the Spring Festival". This year there is an additional question: "Which theater to watch it at?" On the morning of February 17, the first day of the Lunar New Year, many viewers who walked into the theater discovered that before the movie started
How long has it been since you last seen Ouyang Xiadan hosting a program? Since hosting the Xinwen Network on April 28 last year, he has disappeared. She is known as CCTV's "little lark". Why did she choose to wave her sleeves when her career was on the rise?

"When I didn't win the lottery, I thought about spending the rest of my life with him, but when I got money, he immediately betrayed me." Ms. Yuan from Dezhou, Shandong Province probably never thought that once her husband's lottery dream came true, it would be the beginning of the breakdown of their marriage. On December 17 last year, her husband won the 10.17 million grand prize
This character left a deep impression on the audience in the previous work, and how will Shen Teng's performance continue this classic? Plot decryption｜The film will show the courage and wisdom of human beings in desperate situations through Shen Teng's character.
In terms of character analysis, Shen Teng's past performances in comedies are impressive, but in "The Wandering Earth 3", he will face more complex character creation challenges. How to combine comedy elements with serious science fiction themes may be a direction he needs to explore in the film.
"When I didn't win the lottery, I thought about spending my whole life with him. When I got money, he immediately betrayed me." On October 10, Ms. Dezhou Yuan, Shandong Province, told reporters that her husband was a lottery fan. On December 17 last year, he won a grand prize of 10.17 million yuan, 8.14 million yuan after tax, but he changed after that.

Who would have thought that the most tear-jerking movie scene at the beginning of 2026 would not be the life-and-death fight between Wu Jing and Nicholas Tse, or Jet Li's look back on the screen after 14 years, but the Easter egg at the end of the film, where three old people standing in the wind and sand of the desert, wearing shabby clothes, mocking themselves as "old and useless".
Really, before the lights in the theater came on, when the subtitles were about to roll, and the screen cut to that scene, the boy next to me was stunned, and then whispered: "Fuck, it's them."
At that moment, goosebumps ran from my back to my head. Wherever these three people go, it is a living history of Chinese martial arts movies.
Three 260-year-old men, a living history of martial arts
The first person on the left is Yuan Heping, 81 years old.
It’s impossible for martial arts fans not to know this name. He is known as "the best martial artist in the world" by people in the world. The elegant duel in the bamboo forest in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and Neo's kung fu in "The Matrix" were all made by him. This time he was invited by Wu Jingli to direct "The Bodyguard" himself at the age of 80.
Eagle-eyed viewers discovered that his appearance in the easter egg - shabby clothes and weathered face - was a tribute to his father Yuan Xiaotian's image in the classic movie "Drunken Master". This is not just a look, it is a conversation spanning two generations. If my father's spirit in heaven saw it, he would probably be happy too.
The one in the middle, Zhang Xinyan, is 91 years old.
You may not be familiar with this name, but one sentence he said changed the fate of a young man. In 1982, he directed "Shaolin Temple", which brought martial arts movies to millions of households and made Jet Li, who was still a young man at the time, famous all over the country overnight. It can be said that without Zhang Xinyan, there would be no "Kung Fu Emperor" later.
The third person from the right is Wu Bin, 88 years old.
He is the vice president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, but his more important identity is that he is the martial arts mentor of Jet Li, Wu Jing, and Donnie Yen, who are the leading figures in Chinese action movies. In other words, the most capable people on the screen now have to respectfully call him "Master" when they see him. Half of the Chinese action movies are his disciples.
The combined age of the three people is more than 260 years old.
They don't need to speak, as long as they stand there, their weight is as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Wu Jing's "little thoughts", it depends on how many people cry
To be honest, the intention of Wu Jing, who is the investor, producer, screenwriter and starring actor, to invite the three old men and put them at the end of the movie could not be more obvious.
This is no ordinary guest appearance, this is a solemn and respectful ceremony.
In this way, he is bowing to his mentor, the predecessors of martial arts movies, and that glorious era of martial arts.
Think about it, what did Wu Jing rely on to go from "Kung Fu Kid" to "Mr. Ten Billion Box Office" over the years? It’s the unwillingness to admit defeat and the almost paranoid love for martial arts movies. But he knows better than anyone else that he is standing on the shoulders of giants to get where he is today.
In those years, Yuan Heping taught him how to fight well, Zhang Xinyan taught him how to act impressively, and Wu Bin taught him how to practice well.
He remembered all these kindnesses.
So he brought them in and put them in the last shot of his movie. Let the audience remember these old people who dedicated their lives to martial arts movies before leaving.
This time I kneel, I kneel for my teacher's kindness, I kneel for my inheritance, and I kneel for the world that is filled with grudges and grudges.
What is more touching than the movie is the deep feeling behind the movie
Seeing this scene, I suddenly remembered a line from the movie:
"Children can do whatever they want, which is the most important thing in the world."
Our generation is accustomed to measuring everything by the input-output ratio - does this job have a future? Is this relationship worth it? Is this choice a good deal?
But he harshly suppressed the pure "I want to do it".
The "child" here refers not only to children, but also to the self deep inside each of us that has not been obliterated by the world.
Wu Jing wanted to make a martial arts film, so he made it. He wanted to invite the seniors, so he invited them. He wanted to give the Masters a shot at the end of the film, so he gave it to them.
What can ignite miracles in this complex world has always been pure love and belief, rather than shrewd calculations.
Desert, wind and sand, shabby clothes, vicissitudes of life smile. They say that they are "old and useless", but they stand there like a monument.
Jet Li's comeback is indeed big news, but anyone who really knows the industry knows that the three old men, who are 260 years old in total, are the biggest easter egg in "The Bodyguard".
Wu Jing used this easter egg to tell us: Jianghu never gets old, it just changes its way of inheritance.
And we may not be able to fight on the screen like them, but in our real lives, we can be "people of the world" who are not defined by the system or coerced by the world.
May there be a "child" in our hearts who can do whatever he wants.
May that pure love never fade away.

Lui Liangwei was born in Saigon, Vietnam on December 22, 1956. His family moved to Hong Kong in 1968. At that time, he was only about twelve years old. His life suddenly changed and he had to adapt to the new environment all over again. His mother had health problems in 1973, so he went to work in his father's handbag factory before finishing high school. Riding a motorcycle even left scars on his face.
In 1976, he applied for the TVB Artist Training Course. After graduating in 1977, he officially entered the industry, first playing small roles. In 1980, "Shanghai Beach" was broadcast. His performance as Ding Li made the audience remember his loyalty, and his career suddenly opened up. "The Lame Man" was released in 1991, which was a good box office success and received good reviews. He also received an Academy Award nomination.
In addition to filming, he also tried to run a small business. However, Hong Kong encountered a financial crisis in 1997 and lost a lot on his investments. He slowly recovered after selling part of his house. It was not until 2002 that the economy stabilized through the appreciation of stocks and his own home.
The first two marriages did not go very far. One was with Zhou Haimei in the United States in 1988, and they separated soon after. The other time was with Kuang Meiyun in 1996, which only lasted less than a year. He continues to film and maintain his fitness habits. He has many friends in the social circle and there are always people cheering for him at birthday parties. His life is busy but he lacks some stability.
Yang Xiaojuan was born in Guizhou in 1971. Her family had average financial conditions. She knew from a young age that she had to work hard on her own to study. After graduating from high school in 1988, she was admitted to the Department of Economics of Peking University. At that time, not many people could go to this school. She persisted by getting up early every day and going to bed late every day. She completed the economics and management major in four years and graduated at the age of 22.
Instead of staying in Beijing to find a stable job, she went directly south to Shenzhen. It was the early 1990s and there were many opportunities in Shenzhen. She started with the Moutai export business. She had to go to suppliers, negotiate prices, handle customs procedures, and send batches of liquor to overseas markets, accumulating her first pot of gold.
Later, she cooperated with a friend to open a handbag factory, taking OEM orders from foreign brands, supervising production and quality, calculating costs clearly, and making more and more orders. She has a good reputation in the Shenzhen business district and is reliable. People often come to her to help bridge problems between companies.
Relying on these solid achievements, she was later elected as the president of the Shenzhen Chamber of Commerce. In this position, she had to coordinate members from different industries, organize activities, and promote industry exchanges. She handled it in a clear and organized manner, and her network of contacts expanded from Shenzhen to the whole country. Before getting married, she had already laid a business foundation on her own. She was rich and knowledgeable, and she didn't need to rely on others at all.
Lu Liangwei and Yang Xiaojuan met at a friend's party in 1998. She had already established herself in the business world at that time, and the two had a good chat.
Lu Liangwei was deeply impressed by her and had more and more contacts with her. They registered their marriage in January 2001 and held their wedding at Le Pre Catelan restaurant in Paris, France on April 14 of the same year. The theme song of "Shanghai on the Beach" was played and witnessed by dozens of guests. After the wedding, they honeymooned in France.
His son Lu Shanyang was born in the same year. He was named because he wanted him to be kind and progressive. The life of a family of three is on the right track. Yang Xiaojuan does not put down what she is doing, but brings her experience to the family. In 2003, Lu Liangwei cooperated with a Chinese-American partner to establish Touch Media to do taxi in-car advertising. She helped to come up with ideas and explore the market. The project was rolled out in several cities and the income was good for a time.
She takes care of the family finances and gives Lu Liangwei a fixed pocket money every month. He used to spend money casually, but now the money he saves is invested in more stable projects. Lu Liangwei himself feels so secure. The family's assets have gradually increased, including several luxury homes in Hong Kong, as well as properties in mainland China and overseas.
She continued to manage businesses such as beauty and clothing agency, and opened stores in Beijing, Shanghai and other places. The two had a clear division of labor. Lu Liangwei was away filming to maintain his image, and she was in charge of investments and connections in the back. When his son Lu Shanyang grew up, he went to study at the University of Cambridge in the UK. After graduation, he worked as an intern in the IT industry. In 2023, he was already in his early twenties. His parents were relieved to see him doing things independently.
Lu Liangwei is still in good spirits these years. In 2025, he and his wife went to Sicily, Italy for vacation. The two have been together for more than 20 years, and their lives have become more and more stable. They rely on mutual support and practical cooperation.
Lu Liangwei has a good career and life. Yang Xiaojuan's business acumen and careful management have made him less worried. The family is together in harmony, and the marriage has truly come to an end.
Han Yueqiao was born in a military family in Zuoquan, Shanxi Province in 1957. Her parents were both in the army, and her upbringing was as strict as military camp rules. When she was seven years old, her parents saw that her body was thin, so they threw her into a sports school to practice gymnastics.
Fast forward to 1979, when she was twenty-two years old, and an opportunity struck her. The movie "Love and Inheritance" wanted a ballet girl to play the role of Han Shasha. With her solid dance skills, she got the role in the first try. After the movie was released, she became instantly popular and became a household name.
In the 1980s, she continued to take roles, such as playing a sentry in "The Outpost in the Birch Forest" and playing a national girl in "The Peacock Princess". She performed well in each film. She was so busy with her career that she still found time to study acting at the Shanghai Theater Academy. From 1983 to 1985, she learned lines and practiced expressions there.
She even directed her own drama, writing, directing, acting and producing in "The Same Sun", and she was so busy that she was sweating profusely. To put it bluntly, she was the kind of woman who refused to admit defeat and relied on her strength to gain a foothold step by step. Among the actresses of that era, she was considered top-notch.
When Han Yueqiao's career was booming, love affairs also followed. She met Zhang Ningyang, who was seven years older than her. He was born in 1950 and was an Air Force engineer. His father was Zhang Zhen, the vice chairman of the Military Commission. The Zhang family has a prominent background, and all of his brothers have worked brilliantly in the army.
Zhang Ningyang is steady and down-to-earth. The two were introduced to each other, got along well, and got married after being together for more than a year. The wedding was held in a low-key manner in the military compound. Most of the guests were veteran cadres, and everyone toasted.
During the newlywed period, the two lived a harmonious life, getting up early to have breakfast, walking and chatting on weekends, and their relationship was quite harmonious. Zhang Ningyang was busy with work, but he was also considerate to her. When she was tired from filming, he would rub her shoulders.
But after a few years of marriage, problems slowly emerged. Zhang Ningyang is engaged in technical research and travels for several months all year round. She also travels across the country on the crew, and the two of them never see each other. We kept in touch by phone, which was okay at first, but then we talked less and less. Sometimes he asked her if she could do less drama and take care of her family more, and she would be quiet for a long time.
This tug-of-war lasted for several years, and by the end of 1992, the two sat down and signed a divorce agreement. There was no quarrel, they broke up peacefully. She later recalled that it ended not because of anyone's fault, but because the paths were different. Zhang Ningyang later reorganized her family, and she did not complain and continued her life.
Not long after the divorce, Han Yueqiao encountered an even bigger blow. In the mid-1990s, her brother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Without saying a word, she turned down all her film appointments and went home to take care of him. Her brother is her closest family member. She watches over him every day and helps take care of everything. During those years, she stayed with her brother for more than seven years, during which time she began to learn painting to distract herself.
Her younger brother loves to draw, so she started to follow him, from simple doodling to serious study. At first it was just to kill time, but then I became really obsessed. After her brother passed away, she carried his wishes and continued to delve into painting.
In 2006, she went to Italy to see an art exhibition. She was inspired there and came back to apply for the Art School of Peking University to systematically learn techniques. She sat in the front row during class, listened carefully and took notes, and practiced until late at night when she went home.
Her painting style is varied, including oil paintings and Chinese paintings. The themes are mostly landscapes, flowers and birds, incorporating personal feelings. At first, he appeared in small exhibitions and got a good response. Later, he held a personal exhibition and his works sold well. One painting was also collected by a Belgian princess, which gave her a foothold in the painting world.
Her works have appeared several times at auctions, and the prices are quite high. She also does charity, donating money from selling paintings, and organizes office benefit exhibitions to call on everyone to help. Painting became her new career, without the aura of the screen, but she felt more comfortable. Han Yueqiao's career change was unambiguous. From actor to painter, he relied on real skills. Her works are not just for fun, they are recognized by professionals.
She hasn't stopped yet. In 2024, she filmed the comedy "Fuding Family", playing a mother-in-law role and taking it seriously. I also tried the short play "Happy Chinese New Year Flower Buns and Macarons" to learn Internet skills from young people. I usually like to drive and collect models, which are very stable to drive.
I cook for my parents, carry a camera to take pictures of scenery in my spare time, and prepare a photo album. She often spends time in the studio, writing every stroke and piling her works on the wall. She lives independently and does not rely on others. Han Yueqiao's life, from acting to painting, has been down to earth every step of the way. Her brother's incident caused her to change careers, but it also allowed her to find a new direction. Her story, to put it bluntly, is that she refuses to accept old age and never stops.

Since the beginning of 2026, the scrap iron recycling market has been on a steady growth path. Whether it is old farm machinery and iron frames idle in rural homes, steel bars and old doors and windows left over from urban renovations, or thick iron plates and machine parts eliminated by factories, the prices are much higher than in the same period in 2025. According to the latest monitoring data from Shanghai Steel Federation and Fubao Scrap Steel in February 2026, the price of high-quality materials such as heavy scrap and steel bars across the country has exceeded 2,400 yuan/ton. The purchase price of some steel plants has even reached 2,700 yuan/ton. The price of ordinary scrap has also stabilized at 1,600-2,000 yuan/ton, with an overall increase of more than 30%.
Many people suffer big losses when selling scrap iron, not because the price is low, but because they do not distinguish between types, do not remove impurities, and do not cut to size. They mix valuable heavy scraps and steel bar ends with light iron sheets and muddy scraps, and the goods are taken away directly at the lowest price. Combining the latest market quotation in 2026, renewable resource recycling policies, and practical rules of recycling stations, I explain scrap iron classification, pricing, and sales skills in plain language. No exaggeration, no rumors, no gimmicks. All data is true and verifiable. I can help everyone sell the scrap iron at home clearly and make more real money.
1. First understand: Why will the price of scrap iron increase in 2026? How long can prices remain stable?
Let me give you some reassurance first. This scrap price increase is not a short-term speculation. It is supported by real demand and policies. There will be no big fluctuations in the short term.
From the demand side, 2026 is the first year of the "15th Five-Year Plan". Infrastructure, new energy, and manufacturing are all going strong in various regions, and steel mills' demand for scrap steel has increased significantly. Using scrap steel to make steel is more economical and environmentally friendly than iron ore. The cost per ton is more than 300 yuan lower. Steel mills are willing to increase the proportion of scrap steel. This year, the national scrap usage ratio has been raised to 35%. As demand increases, prices will naturally follow.
From a policy perspective, the country will continue to promote the recycling of renewable resources in 2026. The State Council issued an action plan for comprehensive management of solid waste. Scrap steel, as the largest recycled resource, is listed as a key support category. The national comprehensive recycling rate of scrap metal is targeted to reach 90%. Formal recycling channels are becoming more and more complete, and prices are more transparent and stable.
According to industry forecasts, scrap iron prices will remain stable with slight fluctuations in 2026. As long as they are classified correctly and sold at the right time, ordinary families, decorators, and small merchants can sell them for a lot more money without having to worry about selling them at low prices.
2. Core focus: 2026 scrap iron grading pricing table, the thicker and cleaner the more valuable it is
Scrap iron is not priced at the same price. It is graded according to thickness, purity, and material type. The price difference can be doubled. This is the most critical knowledge point when selling scrap iron. I have compiled the national unified recycling reference prices for February 2026 (excluding tax, door-to-door recycling prices). You can compare the scrap iron at home and know how much it is worth at a glance.
1. High-quality heavy waste (the most expensive, do not mix and sell)
Thickness ≥6mm, including steel bar heads, steel bar pellets, thick steel plates, industrial molds, I-beams, channel steels, angle steels, etc. It is hard in texture, free of impurities and rust-free, and is the most popular material type in steel mills.
Reference price: 2280-2730 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1.14-1.36 yuan/jin
This type of scrap iron is the price ceiling. Rebar heads left over from renovations, thick steel beams from house demolition, and old machine tool bases all fall into this category. They sell for 20%-30% more when sold individually than mixed.
2. Medium waste (the most cost-effective, most common in families)
The thickness is 3-5mm, including ordinary iron pipes, old door and window frames, iron plate scraps, bicycle and motorcycle frames, small agricultural machinery accessories, etc. The thickness is moderate and the purity is high.
Reference price: 2080-2260 yuan/ton, equivalent to 1.04-1.13 yuan/jin
This type of scrap iron is most common in urban households and rural courtyards. It is large in quantity and easy to organize. As long as the plastic and rubber accessories are removed, the price is very stable.
3. Light and thin materials (the lowest price, don’t mix them with high-priced materials)
Thickness ≤2mm, including color steel tiles, thin iron sheets, iron barrels, iron wires, packaging iron boxes, old iron cabinets, etc., are thin in texture, easy to deform, and have low recycling value.
Reference price: 1600-2000 yuan/ton, equivalent to 0.80-1.00 yuan/jin
This kind of scrap iron can be sold alone. Do not mix it with steel bars or thick iron plates. Once mixed, it will be priced as light and thin materials, and you will lose the most.
4. Mechanical parts pig iron/cast iron
Including cast iron pots, radiators, valves, machine tool castings, engine casings, etc., the texture is hard and crisp, the sound of knocking is crisp, and it is a special material type.
Reference price: 1900-2100 yuan/ton, equivalent to 0.95-1.05 yuan/jin
Pig iron and ordinary wrought iron should be separated. If mixed together, the price will be lowered. If they are classified separately, they can be sold at a higher price.
3. Don’t sell these 5 types of scrap metal indiscriminately! Earn 50% more by sorting alone
Many people have valuable scrap metal at home, but they sell it as ordinary commodities, losing half of their income. These 5 types of scrap iron will be the most valuable in 2026 and must be picked out individually.
Category 1: Steel bar heads/steel bar pellets (required for decoration)
The steel bars left over from home decoration or house demolition are cut into small sections with a length of 10-20cm, which are the most valuable steel bars. The price is 10%-15% higher than long steel bars and curved steel bars. There is no need to grind it deliberately, as long as the cement and oil stains are removed, it is a high-quality material that steel mills are eager to get. Do not mix it with iron sheets and iron wires.
Category 2: Thick steel plate/industrial corner slot (required to be retained after disassembly)
Thick steel plates, I-beams, and channel steels dismantled from old factories, old agricultural machinery, and old shelves are all heavy waste with a thickness exceeding 6 mm, and the price is more than 20% higher than ordinary iron pipes. Even if there is slight rust, it will not affect the price. As long as the cement and plastic on the surface are cleaned off, it can be sold at a high price.
Category 3: Pure iron parts/accessories without impurities
Pure iron parts such as old motor casings, machine tool accessories, gears, bearings, etc., have no oil stains, no plastics, and no other metal doping. They are high-quality parts materials, and the price is about 15% higher than that of miscellaneous iron. Note: The copper core and aluminum parts in the motor must be dismantled and sold separately. The price of copper and aluminum is dozens of times that of scrap iron. Do not sell them together as scrap iron.
Category 4: Mud-free, rust-free and clean iron materials
The price of scrap iron is directly linked to the impurity content. For scraps containing cement, soil, oil, and plastic, the recycling station will deduct 5%-20% of the weight of impurities. The iron frames, iron doors and windows at home can be sold for a lot more money by knocking off the cement, tearing off the plastic skin, and wiping off the oil stains in advance.
Category 5: Whole piece of undeformed iron material
Whole pieces of undeformed iron materials such as old bicycles, old shelves, and old iron doors are more expensive than cut and flattened scrap materials. Recycling stations do not require secondary processing and are willing to pay a higher price. Don't dismantle it if you can, and sell it as a whole piece, which is more cost-effective than scraps.
4. Guide to avoid pitfalls when selling scrap metal: Don’t make these 4 mistakes, less loss means more profit
Selling scrap metal seems simple, but in fact there are many small details. If you make a wrong step, the price will be lowered. I will tell you all the pitfall avoidance techniques that the recycling station will not tell you. If you remember it, you will not suffer any loss.
1. Do not mix, bagging by categories is the most valuable.
This is the most important point: heavy waste, medium waste, light and thin materials, and pig iron are packed separately and packaged in woven bags and cartons. When selling to the boss, you can directly quote the classified price, so that the price will not be reduced by lumping the goods together. If a bag is mixed, the boss will only give you the lowest price. If you sort it into different categories, the price will be at least 20% more.
2. Ask the price first, then weigh, do not unload the goods blindly
Before selling the goods, ask the boss: "How much does it cost for heavy scrap? How much does it cost for medium scrap? How much does it cost for light and thin materials?" Compare the market reference price of the day. If the quotation is too low, change it. Don't unload the scrap metal on the ground first. Once you unload it, you won't have the initiative, and the price can only be determined by the boss.
3. The miscellaneous deductions should be transparent and the weight should not be deducted indiscriminately.
For waste materials containing cement and soil, the recycling station will deduct the weight of impurities. Normally, the impurity deduction is 5%-10%. If it exceeds 15%, it is unreasonable. If you clean up the impurities in advance, you can avoid having to worry about impurities, the weight will be real, and you won’t waste money.
4. Look for regular scales, not black scales
When selling scrap iron, be sure to check whether the scale has a mandatory certification mark. Scales in regular recycling stations have been calibrated and have accurate weights. Don't go to itinerant unlicensed vendors. The black scales are short of weight and the price is useless no matter how high the price is.
5. Household/rural/renovation household: Scrap iron sorting skills in different scenarios
1. Rural families: old farm machinery, iron frames, iron doors
Most of the old farm machinery, iron plows, iron frames, and iron doors that are idle in rural homes are made of thick iron materials and are considered heavy waste. Remove the wooden and plastic parts in advance, clean up the soil, and take the whole piece to the recycling bin. The price is much higher than the fragmented materials.
2. Urban households: old appliances, old furniture, decoration waste
The iron casings and bases of old appliances, as well as the steel bars, iron pipes, and leftover materials left over from renovations, are sorted into categories: put steel bars separately, iron pipes separately, and iron sheets separately. Remove plastic, glass, and wires. Clean materials will be sold at a higher price.
3. Decoration/construction households: steel bars, scaffolding, steel beams
Steel bars, scaffolding, and steel beams used in house decoration and demolition are the most valuable heavy waste. Cut the steel bars into small sections, clean the cement from the steel beams, and sell them individually. You can earn more than 30% more than mixed sales. If the quantity is large, you can earn hundreds or thousands of yuan more.
6. The best time to sell scrap metal in 2026: When is the most cost-effective time to sell it?
According to the market conditions in 2026, the highest price for selling scrap iron during these time periods:
1. Spring construction season (March-May): construction sites and factories start construction, demand increases significantly, and prices rise;
2. Autumn construction peak season (September to November): infrastructure construction rushes, steel plants restock, and prices remain stable and high;
3. Mid-to-late every month: The recycling station completes monthly replenishment, and the quotation is more reasonable.
It is not recommended to sell goods on holidays, rainy or snowy days. Recycling stations receive less goods and offer lower prices. Selling goods on weekdays when the weather is good is the most cost-effective.
7. Write at the end: Scrap iron is treasure, and you can exchange it for money by sorting it into pairs.
The price of scrap iron will continue to rise in 2026. For ordinary families, cleaning up the idle scrap iron at home can not only free up space, but also exchange for pocket money, killing two birds with one stone. The key is not how much the scrap iron is worth, but whether it can be sorted and sold.
Separate heavy waste from light and thin materials, clean up impurities, and single out valuable steel bars and thick iron plates. Without much effort, you can make half as much money as compared to mixed sales. This is not opportunistic, but relying on reasonable classification and standardized sales to allow renewable resources to exert their true value.
The recycling of renewable resources is environmentally friendly and increases income. With state support and market demand, we ordinary people can turn humble scrap iron into real income as long as we master simple skills.
Finally, I want to communicate with you: Do you have any idle scrap metal at home? Have you ever sorted your scrap metal into different categories when selling scrap metal, and have you ever experienced price reduction? Welcome to share your selling skills in the comment area and exchange ideas on how to make more money.
