Gas in the Phoenix Az area is $4.99. No station in the valley will be the first to go over $5.
The problem these days is finding a steady source of recyclable materials you don't have to pay for or some that are dirt cheap. The yards where I am in Mesa Az don't take e-scrap. They consider it...
I still have my Freon certification from the mechanic's job I retired from years ago but for the small scale recycler to get certified and buy equipment is not cost effective given what they are...
Here in Mesa Az the yard I sell to will no longer accept refrigerators. The guy said the shredder won't take them with compressors in them any longer. I have never messed with the working parts of...
To hard to separate the copper from the motor windings. Most yards pay a set amount for the entire motor if they buy them. The yard I sell at considers the new washer/dishwasher really cheap motors...
This topic has been addressed on You tube by many bloggers. One being 'Kari the mortician'. She is a full time mortician. She has live events now and then. People can write and ask her questions she...
*****Get legal advice from a lawyer experienced with the IRS and LLC's.**** Be sure to explain the entire situation and the fact it's multi state commerce and there is a transaction over a certain...
In Arizona even though the state stops short of saying individuals can't sell their own catalytic converter's there are some federal regulations on the topic but legitimate scrap dealers here will...
Keep a magnet with you. If it's magnetic it's ferrous (Shred not worth much) if not it's non ferrous like brass and aluminum. Some stainless is magnetic but some is not. It's really not worth anymore...
Goodwill thrift stores in Arizona sell the scrap metals themselves.
The yard I sell scrap to in Arizona often gets truck loads of discarded license plates and road/street signs from the state. They are aluminum and have scrap value. I assume the money goes in to a...
I'd stop for now and meet with an LLC attorney. Paying your partner cash for half of the profits is all good and great and leaves the partner with an under the table non taxable gift but you are the...
I would assume whomever owns the property would be more than happy to have you clean it up for free knowing what it will cost them to do the job renting equipment or hire it out . Buildings are...
No one here in Mesa Az takes boards of any kind. Just the basics. They even refuse ceiling fan motors now unless they are taken out of the surrounding housing.
I had my biggest load ever last week. I haul with my 86 Chevy C-30 dually and a flat 16 foot car trailer. All loaded and unloaded by hand. Weighed in at 4348 pounds and was unfortunately mostly shred...
Here in Mesa there are Mexican buyers near by that are paying $1.00 a pound for cans. One guy told me if we crush them he will pay $1.10 a pound. The scrap yard I sell shred steel to pays about 40...
Where I go in Mesa they are lenient but will look before you dump the stuff. I have seen people dump a load of concrete and bricks that was under their pile of tubing. I know the people who run the...
I won't pick up dishwashers of water heaters unless they are literally next door. If I have a large load and people want to bring them to me I take them.
Here in Mesa Az they stopped buying plastic bottles. The city has said to throw glass bottles in the landfill. No one is buying. Shred is sad literally giving it away. I haul at least a ton at a...
I have scrapped out some smaller metal buildings and once an old car repair shop but nothing that massive. Even if the place is half the size of the one in the photo I cannot imagine someone...
How much?
Here in Mesa Az the Goodwill thrift stores always have Legos by the bag full. But they price them high. But sell them all.
I have been scrapping for years and usually stay busy at it. Mostly calls from a few regulars but mostly from my Craigslist ads. As of today I have not had a scrap call in over two months. My...
Tried to sell them off, give them away or donate them but no one was interested. So they went to scrap. I can see where one in a small school setting would be cool but here in the big city people get...
