It seems like that any scrap metal I do find is all the way north or east from where I'm at and that I can't get it because I will be spending my profits out on gas for my truck, but I'm trying , I'm always looking for any type of scrap metal that I can find, I really hope something really big comes my way here soon.

XZAV38 - Have you ever thought about diversifying your scrapping with e-scrap? The only reason I ask, is because like a lot of others here who do both regular scrap and e-scrap, it's a great way to keep a more consistent flow of scrap coming your way.

It seems like one week I get 20 calls for regular scrap, and then the next, I'm hauling loads of computer towers. It's not always like that, but it does happen more often than not. Just something to think about to keep some cash coming in. Best of luck man, hope it picks up - it's been slow for a lot of people.
