    Hmm hmm HMM

    I called my three yards and they were .25, .25, and .26 per pound. I did my best googling to find someone in the area here. I live in the Minneapolis / St. Paul metro area so I would really hope there is a core buyer somewhere. I found one company that looked like they bought cores, but after emailing I found out they are only at .28/lb



    OH! Anyone have a guesstimate at how many pounds I would need before I would ask for any different pricing? 100 pnds? 250? 500? 1,000?

    What sort of companies do you guys get the .35+ at? I am going to throw a CL out there to see if that will help me find a better buyer on them. When googling for a core buyer I am using "core" "lead acid" "battery" recycling, reuse, refurbish". Are there any keywords or strings anyone could suggest?
