    My local yard is paying well for steel from what I can tell

    I've been accumulating steel scrap for about 8 years now and decided to haul a few pickup loads in to see what sort of numbers I can get. My half ton can take a maximum of 1600lbs in the bed and I know when I hit that number by where the suspension sits.

    I took 3 loads in of mixed scrap steel, my yard pays the same for a 1" steel plate as they do for a steel clothes rack. They payed $125 for each 1600lb load of steel. From what I've read on here that's pretty decent I believe?

    Cheers
