    Greytruck and jnjunk, I use Lemont Scrap Processing in Lemont. It's off of New Avenue just to the west of the train station. Based on your guys locations, it wouldn't be a horrible drive for either one of you. Especially if you had some good volume, it'd be worth the trip based on your prices. They're a truck scale style yard. Weigh in, shred on a pile outside, non ferrous to the shop with a 4x4 dock scale, weigh out. First time there if you go, go to the office before you scale. They put your license and truck on file and give you a 5 digit acct number. You hold that up to the window when you scale in and out. You get an inspection ticket from the yard workers. Turn that in for your check. They're pretty lax with their shred. As long as it's about 70% steel, toss it on. Only thing they're really strict on it last scale time. Right now it's 7-330 during the week and 7-1130 on Saturday. If either of you goes there to check it out, pm me and let me know. It'd be cool to shake hands with a fellow forum member. I'm usually there saturdays as I work til 330 during the week. But come summer they usually extend their weekday hours to 430 once it's light out later. I make weekday runs then.
