Completely agree with you. I drive by one steel quite often as its only a couple miles down the road. Right now the have school buses stacked way over plain view and tankers stacked right next to it. Amazing what those machines can do.m

Yeah Bull, I deal with one steel and several yards down in Pinellas co. and they all do things the same. They will put biger things like I beams and cars to one side but they pay the same price. You can fill a car with all diffrant kinds of steel.
