Scrap Metal Software for Ohio

Ohio scrap metal dealers report daily to BCI through the OARRS-equivalent transactions system. WeighPay files Ohio Revised Code Chapter 4737 transactions automatically.

Ohio Regulation & Compliance Notes

Ohio Revised Code Chapter 4737 (Scrap Metal Dealers) requires licensed dealers to capture seller photo ID, vehicle license plate, signed statement of ownership, photo of the material, and to report every transaction electronically — typically the same business day — to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) via the designated transactions database. Payment by check or electronic transfer is required above the cash thresholds set by Chapter 4737, and a hold period applies to certain regulated articles. WeighPay generates the daily BCI-format transaction export, enforces cash thresholds, and retains the photo + ID register for the full statutory period.
