Contracts are a bad idea to ask for as you probably won't get it signed. However, why does everybody think the scrapper is getting the better end of the deal? If they have metal for removal on a regular schedule I would like to know i'm the only one they're calling.
Example: I have been being called for over a year by a motel chain that rents by the week. They always have about 10-15 mini fridges a bunch or bed frames when they call me. Resently they were having alot of trash furniture needing hauled away. So as a perk to them I would haul the furniture away for free too. I was like well they have been calling me bi-weekly for over a year 10-15 mini fridges at a time the least I could do is take a few loads to the dump free of charge. Motels remodel rooms like every 3 years or so. Well I ended up hauling so much thash to the dump that I eat up all the profit I had made off the fridges since they had been calling me(over a year) Well I was fine with this as they wouldn't be doing another remodel for atleast a few more years and I'd start making money again from them. After the remodel the new maintainance man started taking the fridges in himself. I feel like all the times I went and picked up the fridges was all for nothing as I probably lost money after everything was said and done. I wish I had a contract from them guaranteeing me all of it. Just my .2 cents
