Well, looks like gold wasn't the only metal to go up in value! I hauled a load of steel in today and made $388 for 3100 pounds and I made another $500 in two loads of scrap metal.
Three more loads of scrap tomorrow to haul.
But I'm worn out. Time to go soak in the hot tub!

Unprepared steel $12.00 per 100 (uncut)
Mixed assorted scrap $10.75 per 100
My best load was the steel. I had 3 rearends out of dump trucks, close to 10 wheels and 4 drums off of the dump trucks and several smalls like flywheels, driveshafts etc. 3140lbs. according to the scales.
Today I have to figure out how to cram a S-10 in the bed of my truck. I don't have any torches but I do have a backhoe. I'm thinking I can rip the bed off and fold the frame over under itself, them mash each side in and it should sit down inside my bed.
On the second load I can mash in the bed sides and put it in then load some more scrap on top of that.
I hope
Plus, I got a call this morning to haul in some engines and transmissions from another place.
