    Question Good yard near Norman/Tecumseh OK?

    Anyone have recommendations for a yard near Norman OK? Technically I think they're in Tecumseh, but it's boonies either way because they own some land out on Highway 9. I'm going to visit family in a few weeks and they have some metal and computers they want cleaned up on their property. I'm looking for a yard to at least dump off the ferrous while I'm there and get some gas money. Would be nice to get fair prices for any wire and copper I can scrape together in that time period as well. I would probably be driving all of this in my car, so one where I can unload myself would be optimal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Might have to drive into OKC to get the best prices. Might take 30-45 minutes.

    What yard do you recommend on OKC? I need to maximize profit on this, so I can use my dad's truck and make the drive if the price is the best in the area. I'm looking for recommendations from yards that members have used, as making 20 phone calls only gets me pricing info but nothing about service and quality...

    Sorry but I've never been to one there. Looking at the Google choices I might start at Recyclers of Oklahoma.
