It amazes me when I go to the scrapyard, how much non-ferrous stuff is in the ferrous/iron shred pile and they don’t take items to the small scales and get paid much more than dumping a truckload of mixed metals into the pile. I mean, the chunky drier or oven power cord is half the value of the appliance by itself! Take it off and get a couple more bucks! Or aluminum ladders or chairs, rims, brass faucets. Even irony aluminum pays more than just iron.

Great question. We're hoping to make something touching on this soon!

So, you pay more for non ferrous?, What price for ferrous vs non ferrous?
