    Wednesday I called the yard and was quoted low prices. I had a load so I hauled anyway. Yesterday the prices had dropped again.

    #1 prep iron - $105/ton
    # 1 unprep - $ 65/ton
    Cars $ 35/ton
    Appliances $ 10/ton



    Non ferrous dropped as well but since I am stockpiling that I did not bother getting prices. In the ten years of scrapping this is the lowest prices I have seen.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    Was quoted $65/Ton for Appliances/Shred today. For that price I will hold it. They also offered $0.05 for electric motors. Called another yard and they offered $0.14. Called third yard and they offered $0.13, but asked me what my sell price was. I told them $0.15 and she made it happen. Thought I had 300#-500# range, turned out I had 1140#. Nice surprise since I cant move my shred right now.
