    Today's non ferrous load

    Took a load of non ferrous in today

    Usually take it in the first(ish) of every month

    here are the results

    Aluminum-
    Old sheet (mostly screens and window frames) 201 lbs @ .51
    Extruded - 49 lbs @ .72
    unclean extruded - 9 lbs @ .55
    painted - 17 lbs @ .61
    clip - 5 lbs @ .62
    irony - 104 lbs @ .18

    electric motors 157 lbs @ .23

    lead acid batteries - 217 lbs @ .29
    (all from battery back up)

    copper alum rads clean - 60 lbs @ 1.25
    copper alum rad dirty - 35 lbs @ .73
    house wire - 9 lbs @ 1,55
    #2 insulated - 75 lbs @ 1.13
    #3 insulated - 139 lbs @ .77
    #1 copper - 3 lbs @ 2.8
    #2 copper - 10 lbs @ 2,65

    Just a little over $600 in non ferrous





    all in all not a bad non ferrous load. Aluminum qty was a tad higher than normal while copper and insulated wire quanititys were a lighter than normal


    Scrap yard of choice is a 70 mile round trip haul, but was able to bring back approx 30 towers from a shop in the are for the whopping total of $20
