Most of the scrap yards give you scrap steel prices for motors up here
My yard is nice enough to leave price lists on the counter. They seem to only change them about once a month. Maybe because the prices are so low.

There are a few more catagories but you get the drift.
Wow those prices suck.
wow, I get 3.00 for burnt wire
I guess you being in Alaska that explains everything, them shipping it out must cost much more than down here
Nobody buys ferrous here for that reason. The nearest is 360 miles away. Appliances, vehicles and such go to the land fill.
oh my Scrap Master....those prices are the pits...I like mr dew's idea of you starting your own yard !!! Or your own shipping co.
In my town they are only $2.50 and $2.60 at two diffrent yards. The good prices like $3.45 are about 3 hours away
Tell you what, J, if you want to send me your Insulated Copper Wire, I'll pay you $1.00/lb for it. Does not include Coax wire/cable.
Seems like I need to get alot more than just my insulated wire out of this state!
