Metal Recycling Entrepreneur
I`ve been holding on to/Hoarding my sledge hammer crushed Al. cans for a while. My wife told me the barrels were only 50 gallon, but I`ve got 10 of them full. Gas has slowly been climbing Quite high here in So/Central Il. Last week I was in Mt. Vernon & saw .58 cents, got home & saw my "usual" is .60. I don`t wanna get too greedy, but think I`ll wait till .70. Just thought I`d ask, gave my 20, & would Love advice. Thanks ahead of...

Up here, we have a bottle return system, but the yards don't like buying cans and pay them less than mixed aluminum. Also, don't forget that 0.02 / lbs is only $2.00 per 100 lbs. It is all up to you and how far is the yard to you (gas expenses). IMHO, I expect gas price increases will be higher than possible aluminum price hikes.
NEW TO SCRAPPING? READ THIS: Build up your horde of magnetic and non-magnetic metals in two piles until you have a better understanding of the business. Magnetic material has low value and is mostly always steel / shred / short iron. Read old threads about non-magnetic metals and ewaste (and how to sort them), but don't forget that they generally have absolutely no tolerance for contamination (screw / iron / foreign material).
