I have my shipment all boxed up and ready to send to E-wasted. 33lbs of motherboards, cable box boards, RAM, CPU, hard drive boards, cd/dvd boards, and some misc. My shipping worked out to $0.64/lb so I am only sending items more valuable than that.
I have been saving all my shred/aluminum/insulated wire for my local yard. Also started saving some bare copper, transformers, transistors, and copper windings on ferrite. What do the transformers go as (The ones with plastic, steel and paste enclosing the copper)?
What % profit margin are you guys aiming for that buy/breakdown/resell e-waste? Obviously volume plays a big role, but I am trying to nail down target prices so I can give customers good value while still making it worth my time.
I came across a potential customer that told me he wishes he would of heard of me earlier because he just recycled 100 hard drives. Ouch I would have loved those boards and aluminum.
