    Southern Oregon/Northern California Scrappers? Check this auction.....9/24

    We've talked a lot about the closing of scrap yards due to low prices, going bankrupt, mismanagement, being out of compliance, etc.
    There's a bunch of stuff up for sale at this auction (see below) for newbies needing gear, experienced guys looking for specialized equipment, and some trucking stuff.
    Situation is probably sad for the owner/family somehow, but money could be made....lots of bins, a wire stripper, piles of scrap, tools, metal boxes, etc.
    There's even some old scrap trucks....pretty rough though.

    Just passing on info.
    Yard is in Klamath Falls, OR

    Good luck! I hope no one else shows up, watch out for that buyer's premium.

    Well I gave it a go but came out empty handed. Those other fellas wanted it more than I did. I did enjoy the rush of bidding though. That wire stripper went for $2,750 and the dump bins weren't in the best shape but going for next to new prices. Maybe next time thanks for the lead oldbarnz
