    good afternoon

    I have been in the collision repair industry as a body man for 12 years. I have been scrapping for about half that time mostly aluminum. I have been interested in buying a scrap yard in the area for a while it appears he is ready to sell. I am starting the process of talking to banks and trying to learn as much as possible about the recycling industry. It is great that there are forums like this out there with experienced guys willing to share there wisdom.
