[QUOTE=bigburtchino;243258]OK it took me longer than I thought it would, but I located where the manager went to work at. He went to work for a much bigger company, hes the non-ferrous manager at this company. I talked to him yesterday on the phone, told him what his old employer wanted to pay me last week for light steel ($.0075 a pound) and HMS ($.015 a pound), he told me they really don't want to buy steel right now (obviously). He asked me how much did I have (about 2 tons) and could I help him out with, by selling him some non-ferrous. I haven't sold any #1 Cu all year, so I said sure.
This new place is different, three different yards that take up an entire city block. You go into one place to get weighed (scale yard does CRV, Cardboard and Plastic), then you go unload at the ferrous yard, then back to scale to get weighed empty. Take your ticket to the non-ferrous yard, weigh that type of metal on floor scales and then get paid at the non-ferrous yard for everything. The good thing is they have plenty of help and everybody was real good with making it effortless as possible. Evan though you have different yards, I think they were much faster and the bottom line they pay better.
#1 Cu $2.30 Lb.
Yellow Brass $1.50
SS $.50
6063 $.65
HMS Steel $.065
Light Steel $.045
So I made $147+ more just on the light steel and very happy to have a yard manager that wants my business. The best news they buy circuit boards too!
Today went excellent
