Since price of scrap metal tends to be volatile, I figured it would be best to start a fresh thread. The other scrap metal thread was starting to Get a little jumbled and hard to read. Feel free to contribute to this thread, coonman 220.

280 Canadian ton everything; 10$ more for rotors
if there is rail access prices may be higher cause they can get to smelters

I am lucky my post mill is a 1/4 mile from a scrap processor, I had him drop off some gondolas for clean up. Seems now is the time to haul it in. I have about a ton of tool steel blades and piles of short steel from belt stackers I chopped up. Need the room for logs anyway.


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

It's like the Prof getting hauled up as a witness in a trial;
Lawyer question; And you have been doing it for 20 years that way?
Yes
So it has been wrong for 19 years and you never made judgement in your decisions ?

Stops them in their tracks.

Same as moving scrape metal
It is what the local market dictates prices.
