I have a tractor trailer rig in the Green Bay area that im looking to scrap, anyone know what price per pound I can expect to get for it, or a yard that will take it? Im thinking it weighs between 15000-17000lbs.

I had a 71 International 10 wheel dumptruck and it weighed almost 15k lbs. We got $234/ton in Sacramento CA from Sims Metal Management. Had to take the wheels off and drain the fluids. I got another $100 for the big radiator from my local scrap yard too (wasn't worth breaking down so I sold it dirty). The check for the truck was around $1750.

Try b&b metals in Newton, WI. They are half hour south of you and do a lot of auto and bigger truck salvaging. Number is 920-693-8261. If they say no try sadoff in fondulac.

Theres a sadoff closer than fond du lac, in howard, on lineville road. I don't know if they deal with items that big, as the sadoff in FDL is their headquarters/primary. Otherwise, you can try Smittys Salvage and Supply on Main street (I don't know where exactly your stuff is located, or how familiar you are with the area). I know Smittys deals with more stuff than the other salvage yards around here, BUT be prepared, their not the nicest guys in the world.
