Steel prices - going down

.035 for shred now, .055 clean steel, even cast iron like brake rotors is down to .08/lb. The yard I go to, and it's pretty big and they buy just about everything, used to have 2 shred piles going all the time. Now there is 1 and it's a PITA to get at now because there is only room for 2 vehicles, 3 maybe, to drop off at a time.

I've also noticed how they have shifted some staff around, bringing back the veteran weightmaster (the only one I will call that, because he knows his sh!t and has taught me almost everything SMF hasn't) and moving some others back to their former positions to improve effeciency. I wonder if that had anything to do with one of the younger guys buying 100s of lbs of fiberoptic cable as the thick electrical conduit wire (hehehehe, I was there afterwards when the guy tried to bring in a second load and they wouldn't even let him dump it in the shred pile) OUCH! that hurt someone's wallet, and eventually mine, I suppose.
