With a rail spur and shredder I would also have high profits.

I've seen $320-$350/ton



Subtract $20 for shipping (for rail)

25 cars per hour with an operator costing say $30/hour that's $1 a ton

Operating cost for the shredder is around $120/hour or $5/ton

You have say another $5/ton in other operating costs.

Price where I am are only $165/ton

Leaving you with a nice little profit of $124/ton or roughly $20,000 a day in profit just from shred. You obliviously wouldn't be making that by the time you account for drop in market price, being screwed over by haulers, etc. But even if you made half of that $10,000 a day is still a profitable operation.
