I see it's true, can't keep a good man down. Ha.
Anyway, I get a update from Rockaway in NJ, their #'s are inching up also.
Not that I've ever used them, but, they put some good information in their newsletters from time to time.

Rockaway puts out a good newsletter and it's good to see others prices. Really like the guys with Facebook pages that keep you up to date on their expansion plans amongst other news.

Just got off the phone with Ben Weitsman and for the moment it's $151/ton across the board(Steel, vehicles, tin, etc..). Guy I spoke to said Aluminum's up to $0.49/lb where it was $0.47/lb last month. Their facebook said their prices went up and had to go give em a call and see by how much.

Is that Al extrusion? That seems very low, especially since it's the only thing that hasn't dropped.

So that's the clean price? Still seems really low. I've been getting .70/lb for as long as I can remember.

That's mixed aluminum. Didn't ask about grade, just like the mixed tin.

My yard has about 10 different Aluminum Classifications with prices ranging from .15-.70ish cents a pound.

I believe so. This yard does a lot of shredding. A by product of which is ZORBA. This is mostly various types of aluminum and some other non ferrous. I believe that this is how they currently process most of their aluminum. They are installing a heavy media sepetation system, so this could be changing soon.

Came from the bottom.. now we HERE!

Not sure, Adam told me in an email once that it all goes through the shredder and exported based on how much their client wants. They also got a new dozer, shredder and are in the process of redoing their main building.

[Focker]

i am still the same as i was last month.But they said that they think it is going to go up next month.I cant wait

[BRASSCATCHER]

Logan do you get a royalty every time you drop weitsmans name or are you related to them

[logansryche]

Now don't I wish lol. If I were related I could pull name rank on people and if I received royalties, I'd be rich lol. I refrence them everywhere because that's the yard I go to. Syracuse only has Weitstman/Upstate Shredding, Bodine(who's going out of business), and Empire(who's also going out of business).

[DakotaRog]

My non-ferrous guy also has about 10 Al grades ranging from a nickel for "breakage" (what most of you call "dirty") up to 62 cents a pound for auto rims (I'm assuming they're aluminum). Clean Al is .42, painted Al is .47, mixed clip is .52, extruded is .55, and Al wire is .56. Some other oddballs such as Al pistons at a quarter. I hate alum breakage. I really don't want to mess with it unless there some poundage to it. A lot of washer & dryer motors go as Al breakage at this place.

What classification does stripped aluminum wire go in? There is no steel wire in the middle

Shredded Non-Ferrous Scrap ( Zorba ): ISRI Spec – Zorba




Made up of a combination of non-ferrous metals ( aluminium, copper, lead, zinc, magnesium, stainless steel, nickel and tin). The percentage of each metal within the non-ferrous concentrate might vary. Materials are passed through one or more magnets, to reduce or eliminate free iron.
ISRI Spec – Zorba

How can they pay you Zorba when your stuff is still intact?
