This happened recently on the evening before trash collection in Youngstown.
Within one hour, three different pickup trucks drove through the neighborhood looking for scrap metal. It must be a waste of someone's time for three trucks to cover the same neighborhood,
Question
How much do these men get for scrap metal?
Liberty Iron & Metal some current prices are a little higher than last week
Sheet metal. $140/ton $6.25/100lb
Aluminum cans. $.32/lb
Aluminum wheels. $.50/lb
Bare Bright Copper. $2.15/lb
Electric motors. $.10/lb
Car Batteries. $.19/lb
Thank you for this information.
I guess most of what they pick up can be considered sheet metal.
