    You are kind of in the middle of no where. I fish in Salmon Creek on Opening Day of trout season when I can. I visited the Kinzua Bridge skywalk this spring, very interesting.

    We mainly buy catalytic converters. If you had enough, I would make you an offer.

    Hi Butch! Can't speak to local yards but you're close enough to some of the e-waste buyers to ship them at relatively affordable rates, especially if you don't mind saving up until you have a whole pallet full (it takes less time than you might expect!). Check the buyers and sellers section of the forum and you can find folks who will buy your pc scrap and at very good prices if you can't lock down a local option (and really, the specialty e-waste buyers on this forum often pay better than locals yards even when accounting for the shipping).

    I live south of you in DuBois - APA I believe lives in Pittsburgh
    20 computers may not be enough to pay for costs ... I think the closest buyer to you is over in Alliance Ohio .
    The cables you could get more ( after expenses ) just selling to a local yard ( Novey over in Clearfield maybe, I do not know much up your way ) .

    I have been up in your town a few times working in the papermill . Last job was replacing the main steam valve in the turbine building .
