The process

Seven steps. One transparent price.

Every parcel that enters an Okatjivare yard follows the same audited flow. Nothing happens off the books.

  1. 01
    Register

    Bring your ID, banking, claim and transport permit. We capture them once — future visits are just weigh, assay, pay.

  2. 02
    Pre-screen at the gate

    Yard officer checks your documents and permit expiry before your load enters. Anything missing, we tell you now.

  3. 03
    Weigh & tag

    Load is weighed on our certified scale in front of you and given a unique package ID. That ID follows the parcel end to end.

  4. 04
    Sample & assay

    Trained samplers take a representative sample with photo evidence. Assay results usually within 24 hours.

  5. 05
    Price the parcel

    Weight × grade × LME × payable %, minus itemised deductions. Live LME rate is printed on your offer.

  6. 06
    Sign the pink slip

    Buying officer prints the pink slip. You review the numbers and sign — a copy for you, a copy for the cashier, a copy for our records.

  7. 07
    Get paid

    Cashier verifies the signed slip and pays out by bank transfer or cash. Bank transfers land same day if received before 14:00.

Have paperwork ready before you drive.

A quick call to the yard saves you a wasted trip on an expired permit.
