    The yard I go to, the receipt says tin/car bodies. whether I bring tin or a car. If I bring tin, I get $150/ton. If I bring cars/trucks/vehicles I get $170 (or whatever the going rate is at the time). I was just saying there's usually a $20/ton difference between tin (appliances, water heaters, shred, etc versus vehicles.




    I'm annoyed because I would have gotten $170/ton last week. But prices are falling and it is what it is.


    For a while they were advertising a guaranteed $300 for any complete car, but I was making more grabbing the goodies and then hauling it in. But that was when prices were near $200/ton.
