    So I know many of you don't bother with CL for scrap. I guess it must be a regional thing cause it's good for me here as a part time scrapper. I guess also there's a trillion or so people live in Denver now so plenty of metal scrap people are trying to get rid of.



    I picked up a water heater today advertised on CL that had been sitting on a sidewalk for 3 days... THREE DAYS not 30 seconds like usual. It was on my commute home/scrapyard. I assumed it would have been picked up by now but I drove by there anyway 50% out of curiosity and 50% wanted it and sure enough, it was sitting on the sidewalk untouched, so I spent 10 minutes making room on my nearly full truck to load it.

    Yes...Denver is filling up faster then I would like and traffic sucks. With so many jobs here I think that scrapping has taken a back seat.
