    Good morning from Central Arkansas

    My name is Donnie, and I live in Saline County Arkansas. My nephew/business partner and I have been scrapping for several years and over time it has evolved into a second full time job. This year we've decided to invest some money into tools and equipment to cast our net a little wider and pick up more jobs to ease the grind of the everyday hustle. Besides just being on the lookout for junk we'll be adding demolition work, storm debris removal, and firewood processing to our primary list of interests.



    Unfortunately, we live in one of those areas with limited access to scrap yards, and those yards don't have as many categories of scrap as a lot of you enjoy, so I've been doing a lot of research to see where we can find alternative solutions to turning our scrap into cash, and this site has been a great resource so I've decided to register.

    I hope everyone has a happy and prosperous 2014.

    Good morning from Central Arkansas

    welcome, from union county. I am originally from dallas, just moved here 9 months ago. Its good up here, not as many hands in the pot. like you said our yards are extremely limited and i get the feeling some are taking advantage of the lack of pricing and classification exposure of the majority. glad to see you on and i wish you the best.(in ur county) lol

    Welcome to the forum. In a few categories of scrap I save it up and when I going to an area that pays more I bring it with. Of course this is not shred but mostly wire and Al, and electric motors. Mike.

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
