Here's a link for the government surplus auctions. There's a section for scrap metal. I tried bidding on some stuff, but found the winning bids to be so close to the scrap yard price, it wouldn't leave much for profit. I think the bigger yards get the stuff since they can afford to pay more than I could. If you have a roll-off service, consider contracting to government facilities for them.

People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

On govliquidation, don't just look at scrap listings, look at everything. Their scrap sales typically seem to be (and I say seem to be, because I've never bid on anything, but I watch all the time)....they seem to be for multiple tens of thousands of pounds of material. However, there are also tons of listings for smaller items or quantities which may be mainly scrap, or sell basically at scrap prices. Trucks, trailers, generators, electronic and computer equipment, etc. Minimum bid on most lots is $150.
