    Some of the prices are lower than what I get and some are higher. I honestly think you did pretty good but I'm almost 800 miles away from you so I don't think comparing prices from one state to another is being realistic. For example, I was in PA 2 weeks ago and gas was 3.50 a gallon. It's 2.88 here. I do think you should shop around at the yards close to you and see what each one is paying. Talk to them. Get to know them and find out how they want your scrap processed and separated. You will make more money. I have 3 different yards I take my scrap to. Shred goes to one, insulated wire to another and aluminum and #1 and #2 copper to another.
