    North Dakota prices - uggg.

    You think you have it bad?



    Shred - $50/ton (2.5 cents / lb)
    low grade wire - $.35 / lb
    Power cords - $.85 / lb
    copper pipe (tarnished... is this #1 or #2)- $2.70 / lb
    Transformers - $.10 / lb (ebay will give you $.80 / lb... time to sell there.)
    All clean Aluminum (sheet, cast, cans) $.50 / lb


    Still pulled $144 for my load... and cleaned my yard up... so, it's a win... now on to the 200 machines that are just sitting there taking up room....

    And, the shred can't have any electronics in it. They will take large electronics (copiers and printers) but won't pay for them.
