About This Service

A pastiwala is the familiar neighbourhood raddi and scrap collector, known by the same name as a kabadiwala in many parts of India, especially where “pasti” is the local word for old newspaper and paper waste. Finding a reliable pastiwala usually means waiting for someone to pass through your street with a weighing scale, or asking neighbours who they use. Kabadi Dost removes that guesswork. We are a connection service: you share your name, phone number and state through the form on this page, and we forward your request to an independent pastiwala or scrap collector who already works in your locality. That person calls you to fix a convenient time and comes to your door. The collectors we connect you with handle everyday raddi and household scrap, from old newspaper, magazines and cardboard to plastic, glass, iron, aluminium, copper, brass and old utensils. As with any scrap sale, the rate is agreed directly between you and the pastiwala at pickup, since raddi and scrap prices move with the daily market and depend on quantity and material.
