    you are correct. There is a fridge in an alley by my house do I want it? Not really but if it is still there Sat AM I will get it and fill it up with shred for a trip t0 the yard. If someone gets it not a big loss

    Todays prices
    Sheet Iron $75 net ton so $.0375 lb.
    Unprepared $105 net ton so $.0525 lb.
    Clean Sheet Iron $110 net ton so $.055 lb.
    Prepared $115 net ton so $.0575 lb.



    Check with your yards to see if they pay different types of steel. Before a new place came to town all peddlers were paid sheet iron price for whatever they took in. Now most places pay you a little more to separate the steel!
