Three different yards pricing for a few materials. Post here to see what other yards are paying around the usa!
bare bright: 2.75, 2.90, 3.50
number 2 cu--2.65, 3.10
Al extrusion--.45, .50, .63
loose sheet steel--250 net ton
whole autos--260 net ton
308 stainless--.63 & .50
All different when I called around yesterday. Greedy bastards--I'll wait a little while longer on my cu lol.
I called 2 yards yesterday
bare bright $3.15 westford ma
Cast $350 a ton clinton ma
unprepared 290 a ton
aluminum .40-.70 cents/lb
And 150 for torch material
I too am holding my cu for better days, anyone remember 4.00 a pound last june?
Al Extrusion - .65
Cu - Al Mix. - 1.15
Shred .10lb
Insulated Cu wire (power cords, etc) 1.05
4 bucks isn't going to happen maybe 3.90. Hitting 4 bucks a lb for copper is like gas hitting 4 bucks a gallon nationwide. It going to fall like a rock if it hits that high consumers and industries will start to cut back on it or attempt to use a cheaper alternative. It just doesn't justify the four dollar price range at all.
It will hit 4 if the dollar takes a beating.
