Separate the wires the best you can when you bring them in ask what and or how they want the wires. Yards change the rules all the time (could be you, or what the buyer wants or many different things) By me for ever, all wires could have ends on them and they paid #2 insulated price for them. Now ends need to be removed. They still allow aluminum insulated wires to be mixed in. But they are now paying more for romex wire so I need to keep that separated from the other #2 insulated. So far communication wire and Christmas light wire with no bulbs or brackets can go in with the #2 as well. Speak up if you think a yard is screwing you over, ask questions just don't be a Richard about it. I have some guys at the scale treat me like I was scum. Talking in Spanish about me. But guess what all scrap yards need metal and once I had figured out there game and they figured out mine there were no more problems to be had.
