Best conservative guess is 300 lbs. Hope it is a lot more.
Looks like a light one...I'll guess 300lbs for the steel, and 125 lbs for the dirty aluminum. Why didn't you clean the BBQ?
Me and patriot posted at the same time I guess. Ill change mine to 301 lbs.

Im thinking 428 pounds.
Have you scratched up the new vehicle yet!?!?! I always HATE that first gouge or scratch on new cars. Growing up my dad would always take a permanent marker and draw a big line on the carpet under the drivers seat right when he got it... that way the first blemish was over with haha!
ill say about 375 for the stuff in the bed, about 75 dirty ali.
did you check the lamps to see if they are brass and why aren't you getting the wiring out of the lamps?

While we wait for the answer of the weight.

Sorry for the late results.. the total amount was 444 lbs. Congrats to Brandon!
Prices and weight listings by catrgory are included in the image posted.. I am so happy!!
Wow! They do NOT break up the pricing here that nicely on Ferrous material. If I brought that load in they would have weighed it all in as "Shred" and priced it like 155. Not to mention a 500 pnd min!
Wow, i must have got a good deal then!
Also!! I mentioned this briefly before on your new truck thread..
Will that thing be doing a good amount of hauling in your future? I think the truck is gorgeous! I say get some sort of window guard up ASAP and some protection for the bed edges. After throwing stuff in my truck for only a few weeks its gotten 20+ new dings and dents O.O
Any plans for upgrades on it in the future??
Only thing is their paying by the gross ton and not net,
Right, if my calculations are correct, that's just about $170 per Net ton. Please correct me if I'm wrong because I don't want to mislead anyone. I used 2240 lbs per ton for Gross and 2000 lbs per ton for Net.
If someone assumes all tons to be 2000 lb, then they could think they are getting more per lb than they really are. All in all, looks like pretty good prices though, Benny.
I sure missed the weight badly, gotta go back to school on that one.
