    10-14-11 Pick up

    Hey forum,

    Just thought I would post a pic of our pick up we made yesterday. I also have a pick of what we currently have in our shop. With yesterdays load it makes a total of 13,000lbs of boards.

    click the box, they open up in a new window

    I have a question for you Escrap.

    Is there a reason you are keeping suck a large amount of boards in stock? Waiting on gold to rise again?? Personally I would rather move it now with gold at around $1700 oz, rather than wait 12 mths till its back up at $1850 - 1900 oz....

    Thanks.

    Me, too. Been stockpiling copper for a couple months.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    Torker,

    We generate this amount monthly as we are an electronic recycling company. Every month we usually sell anywhere from 8000lbs-15000lbs. Hopefully in the next year we will be selling 20,000lbs-25,000lbs/month.

    We actually work out of a 3000sqft warehouse as of right now. We outgrew the space before we even moved into it but having a box truck helps with overflow of items at times. We have 16 ft ceilings which allow us to go vertical to maximize our space. We have currently just bought and acre of land and are going to through up a 5500-6500sqft warehouse on it. We are building it in a way that we will be able to add more space as we need it. Here are some more pics of some more items in our shop.
