    only specific Motors are purchased as motor price
    Well pump - sink disposal - power tools - steel cased motors - NOT even copper bearing any more They are considered MIX
    Copper bearing pay's only .10 # any way

    Fluorescent balester only old stile no more electronic type's NOT copper bearing any more, considered MIX
    There is a scale-down on what is paid
    as what used to be the Prime money for scrappers who hunt

    I feel in time it may go down the line as to what is - Dirty AL - Dirty Brass and other's
    in the end more to dismantle or sell off as is
    they are cutting out the GRAY area .
    -----------
    So in respect to an oldie There was a time I could take TV boards put them in trash pails Chop up to save on room
    and that was .17 per pound those were the days my friend

    I removed myself from the trash company I worked for as of 2 years ago
    I find scrap non the less
