Thanks matador… I am. >> but I once was just where you or most of you are at.
We do this daily as a business. my drops of steel are every week of more than half ton or more sometimes as much as two to three times per week. I use to store memory and processors but it just was not worth it. the prices go up and down so quickly. its just better to drop my 10-20 lbs per week of each and keep the payroll running smoothly.

I do understand that most on here are just doing what I did three years ago. scrapping the streets and begging for scrap. I do have one great advocacy … the county is pushing all new laws and rules… they also have increased the fees for dropping all electronics at the dump…. each time they do my phone rings like crazy. the flip side also is I do not have weather issues as most of you do. Florida is beautiful every day. even in the liquid sunshine… sorry guys had to rub it in a little.

I'm not sure if you meant this as an insult to most of us here. Just because we are smaller than you, does not mean we're all "begging for scrap."

To stay on topic of the thread, I have limited space and am only hoarding my copper for now. The rest has to get sold to make room and to buy diapers (11 month old).

If I'm reading this correctly, as a ''better than 'scrapping the streets' and begging for scrap'' person, you are turning in approx. 1000 lbs of steel once to three times per week?

how does that make you better than the average ''street scrapper'' who can pick up that much OR MORE a day doing it full time?

Sir, unless I'm reading that wrong, it's a very rude statement. I've been a CurboCo for eight years now and not once did I ever ''beg for scrap.''
