tin prices for old rusted mower and dryer?

[Scrappy Doo]

took them both in got 10 bucs. figured i might just get that for the dryer alone but oh well not that big of a deal right maybe $5 off?

[Scrap man]

Was the mower tin? Does your yard pay different for tin, steel, and iron? I know I'd get the same price for both.

How much did it weigh??????????

[chrisblackcat]

sounds a touch low, but in the ballpark. I assume it was a small mower then with the dryer. I brought in a gas stove stripped of the copper wires one day while in a rush and got $14.00 for it as light iron.

[chrisblackcat]

the weight of the stove was 160lbs.

the weight of the stove was 160lbs.

160# should have gotten around $15 by itself. Did you get a ticket (sales slip) with them?

I did Mick, but do not have it in front of me. In my truck. I will post the weight "in/out" details tomorrow in this thread. The other place I usually go to does not give slips for loads of light iron and I bet I would have got a buck or two more from them. But, my loads of light iron are usually 60.00 or less.

I was also in a hurry and that is why I went to this place that day. Not my first choice.

But, I am glad I did as a learning experience.

160# of tin would have been $12 here

you got .05 a pound then. I just got .09 a pound by me yesterday

[Saroro]

Ouch. It's like .12 a pound here.

[Dumpster-Dee]

.08 last time I went in !!! ouch

[c4f5]

And I thought I had it bad at 7.5 cents a pound. That's why I don't haul in less than 4 tons at a time.
