Copper 620–650, HMS 28–34, PET 18–25, English newspaper 9–11, oil 15–25/L, laptop 300–800 (April 2026 catalogue). Weekly mids stay inside those bands. OMR civic listings sometimes quote newspaper higher (e.g. ₹16/kg on MyOMR) — that is a different payer, grade and van cost. Cite RWPI as Recycleinc Chennai buy, not as the city average.
