I live next to a large scrap yard.
I talked to the owner one day and asked why they didnt pay more for scrap. (competion was 10-20 higher per ton)
His answer was great.
They don't want to work that hard and they set a goal of 200,000 tons per year.
Any more than that and trucking becomes a problem.
They are currently building a rail spur to load onto trains.
Hopefully that increases the price.
