Welcome! What types of items do you refine? Do you refine e-waste? I live not far from you and would love to find a local buyer
Just sold 50lbs of motherboards, finger cards, and hd boards to ewasted. Got $173 after shipping was taken out. He even sorted out some stuff further than I did and gave me a little better price...
Ive been thinking about buying it. I was thinking it might be a good quick reference when you are out on the road. Havent bought it yet though
Keep us posted! I have been considering doing the same mailer campaign. Curious how many more calls you end up getting. Looks like a great start so far
I just completed a transaction with E-Wasted. Sold 41 lbs of stuff and got 101.70 after shipping. I used his pre-paid shipping labels which made it really easy. He sorted, processed and cut a check...
Side... I am new to E-s=waste. I ship my higher end e-waste. I just send 42 lbs yesterday to EWasted. I will let you know how it turns out. I am still looking for local buyersfor the less...
Welcome to the forum. I do scrap metal and e-waste down in the Provo area. Nice to see some other scrappers from Utah.
Awesome find. That should pay off really well
I actually got $25 for the stainless door parts. (.55\lb.x 49 lbs) I am going to hold onto the sculpture but it would have sold for $85 if I sold it today. I thought that was pretty good. And I...
I finally had a good day scrapping after a bunch of slow ones. My first pickup yielded 14 computer towers (All complete, but a few were missing HDs.) I also got 6 printers and 2 CRT monitors. Most...
I was surprised at how quick the prices tanked here in Utah. A couple weeks ago it was 170\ton for shred. Went in Monday and it was only 140\ton. Thats a pretty big percentage drop.
Today I sold 33 lbs of holiday lights with the bulbs attached for .90 per pound. They were the miniature indoor type lights. I thought that was pretty good. Especially for not having to do any...
I have been using Freecycle for about 2 months. I ask for free scrap metal or electronics and repost once a week. The moderator has never bothered me. I have gotten a few goodies off it. (A...
Welcome, What part of Utah are you from? I have been scrapping in the Provo area for the last couple of years. It rare to see another Utah Scrapper!
This week, I picked up a complete, but weathered 1971 Honda dirt bike. Before this forum, I would have dropped it off at the scrap yard on the way home. But I called around and found a guy that buys...
Sorry to hear about your loss Dee. I'm going through a similar situation with my mother right now. Watching someone you care about waste away is very tough. I admire you for being there for your...
My yard only wants to give me shred price for appliance motors with aluminum windings. They give me motor scrap price ones for the copper windings. Am I getting ripped off? What do you guys get...
Thanks for the great post PTS. I just picked up a Pentium 2 CPU in a plastic case. The pic showing one taken apart was very helpful!
I tried my first dumpster dive today. I was dropping off the kids for swimming lessons and saw a dumpster by the community pool. I checked it out and found 2 pretty good sized sump pumps in there. ...
I am slowly building up enough quantity to sell. I appreciate the detailed price list. I will use it as a guide to make sure I don't throw away anything good. Glad to have a buyer available for...

First picture I have attempted to download. Lets see if it works
I am in the Provo area. About 1 hour south of Salt Lake City
I had a pretty good day picking up appliances today. I picked up an old stove about 7 miles from home. While I was out there, I picked up a fairly new washer that I am going to fix (It wont stop...
Thanks for the ideas guys. I think I will take your advice and try it on some select items. I already fix a lot of the machines that I pick up so having a parts stash just for myself would probably...
