Went to my usual yard yesterday, shred down to $0.02/lb

But also just figured out (by passing it randomly on an unrelated trip) that there is another scrap yard I never heard of or knew about that is actually 4 mins closer than my normal yard (20 min drive instead of 24). Called them and they are paying $0.035/lb so probably will take in there for a bit

Shred up 20/ton. Currently 90/ton in Chicago Heights Illinois.

Prices have been inching up at my CT yard I visit.

Ran in a load of cast iron, all steel grades up another 10/ton.

Shred 100/ton
Cast 110/ton

$120 a ton here if you have more than one ton. Have to wear a face mask everywhere on their lot. It sucks unloading steel wearing a face mask.
They reduced their hours.
But at least they are open. Place was closed for quite a while.
