Yep, I’ve been doing it for about a year and half now… and I love it!! I learned a lot from Mike the Scavenger, Thub, TinMan And several other Scrappers. And went from making minimal profit because I was throwing valuable metals in scrap pile to making some good money. Also the yard I go to, they helped me learn what to look for, process, separate, and increase my profits. Giving them good tips helped tooo!! They take good care of me and give me. unbeatable prices on everything! Especially when I come across a bulk load of a certain item like wire or aluminum/ copper/brass.

Clean Copper it’s pretty much the best thing to bring in. Keep checking on local scrap prices though, they do fluctuate and sometimes can even double in a month just because of demand. I work for a scrap company, sitting on lunch break right now. I watched someone bring in 2 standard garbage cans with clean copper pipe in it. He left with over $1500. For 2 garbage cans. Not even full. $3.40/lb adds up very quick.

For A/C condensors and air handlers here in fl. you have to have purchase information for them to take it. Same with certain wire.

Dam how bad was the nail that you would have to save for a new tire. I have been going to scrap yard for years and have not had that problem yet. I'm not saying it can't happen but if it should happen that I get a puncture in my tire I can take it to a tire shop for a patch which usually cost me $20 or a plug for $10; which I can and have done myself of plugging a puncture done simply by going to your auto parts store or Walmart and purchasing the inexpensive repair kit. Btw the patch would be the safer and secure fix but the plug can work just as well if just done right and follow instructions to how to use. I've use the plug over the years and have been satisfied with the results
