    Cool what do you guys think prices will recover to?

    I am only dealing with scrap.for about 2 1/2 years.

    Prices on shred have gone from 10.5 to 2.5 cents at sims and from 8 to 2 cents at the other.
    The second yard only pays 0.5 cents for fridges.

    Insulated copper wire ia down from $1 to 50 cents.

    Just wondering what do.you guys realistially expect prices to go.up to?

    Not really asking about a time frame. But.is there a chance for.it.to go back to.previous highs or is it more realistic somewhere in between?

    Luckily i don't depend on scrap money but.it would be nice to.go back to $100 loads.

    Right now i am.giving my shred away as its not worth my time,

    I.only keep non ferrous for some lil cash. But thinking i should stockpile at least the copper and wire.



    I dont need the cash so.its.like. little piggy bank
