That's a consideration always. I get requests to "split the ticket" for stuff I pick up. Just got one today that'll be several tons of #1 Iron. I have had these before and this is what I do. I'll offer to pay 1/2 of the scrap yard price if they'll sell the stuff to me or deduct the cost of the gas from the ticket; then split the remainder 50/50. By selling it to me, they save the cost of the gas. Actually, I prefer to buy the stuff. That allows me to sort, hold and maximize profits.
