So I was at one of my yards today. This is not my load.. but I was there when the guy brought it in:
A Full Gaylord of 4" Copper Pipe.
He walked out of there with $911 bucks. DAAAAAMN!
Just wanted to share with all of you!

I'm pretty sure from the toilet to the street it is always either terra cotta pipe or pvc.

All my house to street lines are terra cotta

We see lots of cast iron & copper (PVC in newer houses). Clay tile underground.

All the DWV (drain, waste, and vent) and pressure pipe in my Grandfathers house in Denver is 1/2" to 3" copper. Circa 1959.
Always got a little drool on my chin when I was in the basement looking up!

Large copper pipe must be unusual. Most of the old drain pipe over 2 inches seams to be cast iron. My friend has something in his house that I have never seen anywhere else,,,,, a 275 gal stainless steel oil tank. Any one else ever run across a tank like that? It looks just like a normal oil tank.

I have seen it before a few times - I once traded some copper instead of money with a plumber - he had a few feet of it and a couple ft lengths that were connected to PVC pipes (guessing yucky poop shoots).Originally Posted by Immulmen
I've also seen it on older furnace jobs. Woooo aren't those great when someone wants you to remove their old furnace cause they installed a pellet stove and you stumble across 40lbs of copper too =)
I wonder if he got it all from the same location.
