What are you guys seeing for can prices? .30 a pound here. I have a couple hundred pounds in cans, but I won't sell it for that. I'll hold it until it goes up. I have a hundred or better pounds of aluminum scrap too. With the US so divided, I'm just glad to be on the side that believes in God, has the most guns, and knows which restroom to use.

Their post price is for sheet iron $80 per ton, heavy iron like rotors could be up to $130. I do not know the other varying or grade prices for iron and the other metals. When the prices were really high a couple years ago I never so so many old balers, combines, diggers, plows etc. hauled away. sure cleaned up a lot of the farmers bone yards. Bryce
