Hello all! My name's Joanna. I'm from North Carolina and started scrapping/salvaging metal more seriously about 6 months or so ago. Have been doing it off and on for several years as I my e-junk/cabling piles start growing. Primarily a computer network and phone technician, I fix a lot of different types of electronics and started selling scrap on the side. Interested in how much I can get, of course, but not sure that I want to do this full time or become a processor or anything. Just depends on the market I suppose.

Take care.
