    My observations:

    Shredder runs for less hours, but the yard we go to is on contract so they MUST receive enough material to satisfy the mills. That said...walk ins and drive ins seem to be down. Our business itself, were growing as per usual, e waste is weird like that. Copper being down has had more of an impact than steel being down around here.

    WI ITAD LLC, IT Liquidation Services, we remarket, buy and sell scrap electronics No customer too large or small!
