    I haul a lot of files. It's going to depend on what kind you have. You are going to get paid by weight so thats something you'll have to figure out by experiencing it.

    * on a side note I would like to share something with you. Make sure you never try to scrap a fireproof file. First of all they are extremely expensive and you should resell them. Secondly they are extremely heavy, you'll know one when you feel it, the lateral type run in the 7 to 800 pound range. Fireking is a common brand. The scrapyards usually won't take them. Their weight comes from being filled with concrete, which is what makes them fireproof.
