However i have never really scrapped on a large scale before. Unfortunately, my dad lost his job last year as a result of the economy, and i decided to scrap metal to help pay for my own college tuition as times are tough and i know my dad would appreciate every penny i can contribute.
    I found an abandoned factory that has a been abandoned for around 15 years in my town and it is kinda in the middl eof nowhere, so while i suppose its not strictly legal, it isnt as though im stealing from anyone and i wont be caught. the place is already trashed pretty well with graffiti and etc but there is a largee amount of irion, aluminum, steel, and some copper still left in the forms of beams, lockers, ducts, water heaters, doors, etc. If anyone could help give me tips or anything of the nature i would really appreciate it!! thank you!!
    If you want to go to prison for breaking and entering, vandalism, theft, and lord only knows what else, go right now!



    If you want a chance at a life, to finish school, and to get a GOOD paying job, take the address to the court house or where ever public records are kept in your area, and look up the current owner! There is always someone paying taxes on it. Contact them...if they have no desire, perhaps you can make them a deal or something, but regardless if a business has sat abandoned for 100 years or 1 month, NEVER go in without permission, unless your willing to throw your life away!

    If you cannot find the owner, then speak to the police, or someone at public records and ask who you need to speak to, to get permission.

    If he just goes to the property then sure.

    I suggested to speak to the police, if he cannot find the owner after looking up the address through public records.

    They may know who owns it, or provide him some useful information on where to obtain it.
