I haven't checked here yet but was wondering what prepared iron is going for. Here everything has to be cut 4 foot or less to get a premium price.

I need some prices to compare too.

Thanks

$220 per ton for 2'x4' prepared steel. Bare bright copper is $3.10. I'm going to echo North of 50. Just go to the iScrap app. It's loaded with answers for all things scrap related.


wanna be goat farmer.
