    In Arizona stripped wire needs to be turned in with a business account! Just wanted to make sure you knew that before you stripped it....

    Wow, sucks to be in Arizona with that kind of regulation. Glad we have not regressed to that level here in TX.

    Do they enforce this in Tuscon? My first trip to the scrap yard I had about 100 pounds of #1/#2 wire and the guy actually said "You know you'd make a lot more money if you took the time to strip this."

    Ever since, they take it and give me #1 pricing on it. In their defense they could just say they thought it came from windings in motors or transformers. Although it is plainly obvious.

    I'm sure they'd enforce the Cat law though, it's a bit more specific. I live in Mesa and scrap yard is in Tempe.

    Oh and BTW, cans are still $1.00/lb, but #1PETE is up to a whopping $0.35/lb. WOOOHOOOO. And the new house I just moved into has a place that takes both about a quarter mile away. I could push all my PETE there in a shopping cart!
