What not to do the next time you go sell a load!!

This is basically for the newbies here,I think that it is very important to get the most for your load, that being said you have to talk to the yard boss or the scale clerk or some one before you unload your truck,do not leave it up to them to pay you for your goods,you separated your load and you should be paid for each item,unless all you are selling is tin/shred.Some times I go to sell and I might have 15 or 20 different items and I get paid for each of them,an easy way to do this is first get rid of the tin,back to scale get the weight then go to the nonferrous area, know what you have and tell them first I got blank and so on,watch the scale and write down the weight,let them know that you know the weights of every item,they will treat you much better,after twenty five plus years in this business mistakes are always made and for some strange reason they are always in the yards favor,watch the scale make sure they tare every item when you are done not when you turn your back to get the next item,that's just the reality of this business.
