We dealt with High Voltage for about a year, I don't think he and his partner had what he claimed. The boss and I wanted to visit his place but he was always to busy, RED flag. There only a couple...
I dealt with High Voltage for about a year till all contact stoped, never heard a reason why. I run a MG mid size granulator that we have had for 5 or 6 years. I getting ready to leave for work, I'll...

There are many grade's of stainless steel which I deal with daily. The most common are 304 and 400. 304 is not magnetic unless it it has been welded or heated then you will have a slite pull, 400 is...
Here's our copper categories at the yard I work for in Indianapolis, In. #1 new, used clean no paint, no solder, #2 painted, soldered joint's, small attachments, #3 sheet copper, roofing, gutter's,...
We get the same price for our bare bright and copper chop's. The load we just sold was comex minus 8.5 cent's as of last Thursday.
Sledge, it was a mess out there yesterday, our yard is all concrete with a lot of dips. Shred and sheet building had 2 foot of water in it, had to have the customers off load out side. Non ferrous...
Thanks freonjoe. We have a machine to reclaim freon but with the amount of units we have it would take way too long. The co. we are using is charging $17.00 per unit, they have 2 guys here and they...
Thank's freonjoe for reply, I knew you would. The refrigerant is R410A. One unit has 3.7 lbs. the other has 5.3 lbs. Just trying to get a rough price as to what we should be paying to get these units...
Trying to get the average price of reclaimed freon and what would the cost per unit to reclaim. This units are new and unused, has 3 to 4 lbs. per unit. Thanks.
When you grind Ti it will spark a bright white, Ti is lighter than alum. most of the time. Right now Ti is about the same price as Alum. or less. Way back when I remember Ti was $5.00 to $6.00 a lb.
At the yard I work at those go as clean al/cu, the other's go as #1 ex if clean the colored one's #2 ex. They either don't know what they are doing or trying to get over on you. Hope this help's.
Miked, when I get some extra time I'll post some info on our grandulater.
Sledge, gotta find time to meet up. I take care of my disabled gradson and 2 of my great grandkid's (they are my BESTfreind's) and work 45 to 50 hour's a week, at 61 year's young I got a full plate....
Grandson loged me off a while back, took me this long to get back online, pain in the a$$ to get back on line. Copper has been good, sold 9 load's since I've been off line. Comex hit $2.70 today...
Good results, I still think Nucor or Trockman will be your best bet, there both are close to you so transportion won't be to much. Good Luck.
Try a mill that's make's rebar as rebar doe's have copper in it. Way back when we used to get this type of material we bailed it and shipped it to Nucor Kankakee I think, not sure. You might also try...
All of you are right, copper tube's from coil's are #2 copper due to oil and alum. residue. Like said sell them as clean Al/CU or IAL/CU the extra monies made aren't worth the time.
I've also bid on several of water meter lots and as Pnutfarmer said they always bring top dollar. I don't know who buys them but it cant be to make money, as is the best you can get brass breakage,...
I got to revise my reply as your reply just got to me. My wife dosen't know scrap but I have many contacts. I crush all my beer cans. ( A 96 gal. toter holds 125 lbs of cans $38.00) I brake every...
You need a better one man as YOU ARE MAKING MONEY.
