Leverage & diversify HMM what am I talking about. Scraping metal offers these monetary advantages.
First
if you a hoarder type scrapper, as you know metal price goes up and down
but the darling of consistent price pay out to your pocket is Aluminum & non Ferris Stainless steel as i have noticed those 2 metals seem to more or less stay around .50 to .55 . So if you have copper & don't like the current price they pay, hoard it & keep on the look out for Aluminum & non Ferris Stainless steel as there is no need to hoard those metals, as you wait for a market shift in copper. That's Leverage
Second
The art of collecting, as you hunt & collect you are monetarily diversifying, cause generally as you decide what to grab you might miss a few items to others or choose not to grab some items if you feel a need to ask home owner first but don't have the time. Luckily the value of each item you find represents a true diversifying value , missing out on some items might only be like missing out on $10 to $15 . With a bit of luck / skill you'll find more but of-course missing out on the mother load might sting a bit, & that's the point if one was to only look for the lucky find , say a 600 pound oil burner it will take some time , so just keep on diversifying
