    Or use the ISRI specs. These are the specs that your scrapyard uses to send to the mill. This should be the scrappers bible...

    Got .60 per lb last week and .45 per today on the same material! Recovering an old burned down aluminum sided and roofed barn. Guess it pays to call ahead to get todays price every day. New to this whole scrapping thing, usually only deal with copper and brass as I am a plumber. Money in everything, just seems recycling companies want to short you every way they can.
