RIP Mick :(

Welcome to the melting pot.

Post em up!

Everyone looves pictures..

I drive 20 minutes past the nearest yards to go to my favorite one because:

better prices
less crowded
nicer workers (owner, wife & son are almost always there)
cleaner yard

Even though it...

bookmarked that little gem..

What are the chances of seeing a classified section on the forum? I'm thinking mainly for parts, electronics parts and things with more than scrap value. For example, I just picked up a laptop and i...

Take a look at some buyer price lists on the forum and through the Internet.

Cell phones without batteries sell for anywhere from $4.50-$6 per pound depending on the buyer and the current market...

My favorite is:

"Metal clothesline poles for free. Cemented into the ground. You must dig them up yourself."

Yeah, I'll be right there.

I'm from LBI but I live outside of Trenton now. U?



Thanks for the tip. I'll have to keep them in a separate bin from now on..

My newest addition..

I'll probably get it colored in the next few months. I had to wait...

See if Frank will sell you 200# or so at $.30/lb ($60).

Take the next day and sort, strip, and sell that 200# (minimum of $200 where I'm from)

Go back to Frank later that day to purchase an...

Check jcwhitney.com. Sounds like something they would have.

I think if it's an S10 it's between 500 and 1000#.

Does it at least have the rear axle? That's probably good for close to 100lbs.

What's the difference in payout, .10/lb? I don't move enough aluminum to have it make a noticable difference.

Even though it's usually in my way, it's handy to have it around.

When there's a lot of competition you need to be smarter than them. If they go out in the morning, go out the night before. Figure out their route and beat them to it.
