    A different zip code or another area code, George. This could include many distances. I guess it would depend on your transportation.

    A plane ride from Chicago to Milwaukee would be local by air, but a long way on foot. I'm gonna guess a scrap trucks semi-local radius would be 100 miles, but not less than 50 miles...

    Figured, but never hurts to ask.

    Either way, that is cool.

    You're welcome! Advertising here is definitely effective. Not just advertising to members, but you're advertising to the forum's guests too.

    Believe it or not I've been asked to REMOVE and CHANGE advertisements before because they were getting TOO MUCH attention as a result of their advertisements here.

    I can attest to the response from this forum as well. Good to see others getting a similar response.
