So I've been collecting my scrap for a couple months now and I decided I needed to take some in to make room in the garage. I took in 2 big rubbermaid cans full of crushed cans and a pile of window frames and screen frames. Also 4 alum. truck wheels. I noticed the guy at the yard was weighing things together which seemed odd. I questioned this and was told I would have to ask the guy at the counter when I take up my ticket. I get to the counter and the guy tells me they buy aluminum either "clean" or "dirty" and there is no difference in price for grade. WTF?!? I tell the guy window framing is 6061 and worth a whole lot more than the 0.35/lb. they were paying. Nope he says it doesn't matter. Guess I'm loading up my trailer and driving into the next state over next time. This is BS!
