huge price drop here in ne pa

[ozzy214]

Now 5 and 3\4 cents with another drop coming in a few days I was told.

[Grayson97]

In NC at my yard, steels 5.50, coppers 1.75, and aluminum and brass are holding strong!

Got 4 cents Saturday... sad

[Mechanic688]

Ours dropped to $90. a net ton or .045 a lb.

[ElectricLiquidators]

I think the best price I can get down here is $130/140 a ton. South of Indianapolis. Compared to some of the prices I have seen, thats not bad.

[KzScrapper]

Street Price is about $70 NT in Denver.

[Copper Head]

My last sale was .05
For the future cars are going to be the way , yanking out 1000 pounds of steel from free find dumpster diving literately wont pay
if it goes lower then .5 , driving time to find - time to load & unload - coupled to finding steel with luck as the foundation . The profit is gone .
If one has the room finding and storing away might be like money in the bank.
