Keep in mind that could be between 15c and 30c per lb for dirty al depending on number of grades they have.
If you get more than 20c don't rock the boat!
Less than 10c I'd question.

You are right on the mark as usual Mr. Lostinlodos, my yard goes by the if it sticks it's metal,if not it's aluminum, somewhere in between its stainless steel, then you have brass,copper,radiators, not much more than that. No joke!! Yall talk about getting Metal tested, with a xray gun, I'm like ain't no way

I would think more in the .15 or less here. A month ago we got rid of a bunch of scrap iron at work. The yard here in Carthage was only paying .33 for clean aluminum. .25 for clean stainless. And they wouldn't know what an XRF gun was if you hit them with it. That's why I'm looking so hard for a better yard.

I'm thinking about going to Alabama, I've heard people talk about it. Not sure where or the name. Keep you posted on that

Rdw; 33c for clean al is a ripoff! Clean al had a base buy yesterday at 46c with an 8c spread.
Raw refined (totally clean ingots) is 88c per lb at 10kT
They're ripping you off major.

I know...Carthage metal recycling is crooked, that's why I go to Longview. I got a price list from a place in Dallas the aren't much better I think it was .41 cents last week.

41c is more in line with reality.
