    I hoard mine too, mainly because I don't get that much at a time.

    In Australia if you do not have an ABN (Australin Business Number) like a Taxation number for business only..

    you can only receive up to $300 per day from ANY scrap yard. even then you give your licence which they photocopy, and they record your car regestration number.

    I know the local yard pretty well, so we weigh as we go, then as the weight vs value hits $300 we stop and I put the rest back in the truck

    p.s but I do tend to hoard copper and brass untill I have minimum 30lb brass and/or 80ld copper.
