Stainless Steel .69#
Extruded Aluminum .68#

Painted Aluminum .55#
Dirty Aluminum .38#
Cast Aluminum .53#

Yellow Brass 2.10#
This yard recently installed 5 drive thru lanes(covered) on asphalt and can have up to 3 cashiers working during peak hrs.
stainless and insulated #2 looks a little low but every thing else looks pretty good.
Prices are a little bit better than I'm getting down here in St. Petersburg,fl
Mind if I ask which yard this is? I've been looking for a good place to take batteries to and I like their price. Thanks in advance.
Here you go CC. Rocky Mountain Recycling

Was a nice $250 payday for 223 pounds of stuff $150 of it was from the copper.
Hard to beat those prices! They have always done me really well there. Nice load PTS!
KZ, are those public prices, or dealer prices? I have been taking my non ferrous, with a couple of exceptions, to Nebraska for a little less money, but it is much, much closer. The guy I sell to is a one man operation, and will soon be approaching retirement. I need to think about the future. Thanks.
c4f5 those are public prices. If your coming down I-76, Rocky Mountain should be one of the easier yards for you to get to and the new drive thru lanes are nice and convenient.
I checked it out on online maps, and yes, I-76 it would be. Doesn't need to happen right away, but I will need a new non ferrous buyer in the not-so-distant future. My iron, car bodies, batteries, brass radiators, cats and aluminum wheels are covered elsewhere, but everything else will need a new home. Thanks!
