On Saturday I got $178/NT this cant be good
Just got $0.11/lb on shred two days ago. I think it tends to be localized and revolves around meeting contracts. Mike

tell me about it, I already had the truck offloaded and the guy came out and told me how low it was. I was like, well crap, I'm not gonna reload it again.Originally Posted by KzScrapper
It must be local, some of you are getting great prices!
My yard has been screwing me for quite awhile at $150/ton, and that's the "dealer" rate. Walk ins get $120/ton. Another yard is paying $80/ton. One of several reasons I hate this place.

We are down as well.. $200/ton here as of 6/18
I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

Down to 140, or .07 a pound at my regular yard, travelled an extra 25km to get 165 a ton, or .825 cents. So I got an extra 50 bucks on 2 ton, was worth the extra distance. It was a nice, clean, paved yard to boot. I'm gonna like it there....oh ya and there is a beach not too far away!(says the wife)

Took a trip to Cincy Yesterday for family water park fun.. Saw A billboard on the highway for Southern Indiana/Cincy area at.. $230/ton
Central Indiana sitting around $200-$215/ton depending on where you go.

I would like to know how big(or small) the yards are that are paying the lower prices. If these are small yards they might be reselling to a bigger yard. Or like Mike said it could be a contract thing. If they already met their contract then they don't need the steel so bad and can try to get as much as they can for cheap. The yard I go to has been steady at 200 per ton.
