    How to start a new scrap yard.

    I would suggest finding a yard 2-3 states away and try to do internship for a few months and sign a non competition agreement.



    also look into ewaste I'm not sure what your it knowledge is, but maybe you have some connections to start buying from. there are several good buyers on here and a freight broker. doing ewaste would also have steel and infectious byproducts. you could slowly expand into buying other stuff if you can keep up with the ewaste
    Currently looking for a job in or related to scrap/recycling. Relocation is possible for the right offer.
