    DFW Metal (Dallas) New here

    Hey all- I work out of a scrapyard in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I sell mostly from my website. It was extremely tedious to get going but no more days and days of back and forth emails! A customer can view at his conveience, call me and we can discuss with all info at the same time. Changed everything.

    The only downside to selling the way I do is that I have to look at everything that comes in here, determine value (if any), research what the heck it is, move it to storage area, clean, take pictures, etc, then figure out how to market it. Sound familiar? Today, I got in 600 MH High bay lights, almost bought 20 gaylords of lithium batteries from RC cars thank God for the internet- apparently not only is there no market, cost is $2 lb to dispose of!



    Good Introduction? Kirk

    I still scrap, but having a real relationship with a scrapyard is the way to go
