    Good video. I think it depends on if you take in account your time or not.

      @@ScorpionMetals No, if I took that into account, I would lose a lot. I get paid an extra one cent if I strip it totally down to copper. I could completely do it in 5 minutes probably, so I can expect to make 12 to 15 cents an hour if I do a bunch at once. That's at my prices.

      Yeah, like I said, I will probably strip the easy stuff to melt, but I'm not bothering with the twisted up stuff. I still get lots of fun stripping the worthwhile cables, too, so don't feel bad for me. 😂

    Great. Kyle at my yard says it's not worth it to process romex but I can never stop pulling out the ground wire it's just too easy.
    That would be great if you could get a 30 yard bin and just pack it to the tits with shred and then every 4th load fill it with hms and heavy cast. Canadian treasure hunter would approve!

      @@Nas_Atlas yeah, that would be ideal. I would probably like to get 3 bins at some point, but it will be probably$1200 to get them hauled out here. If I get one it would be closer to $500 I think.

    This is a buy product of this business and that's light iron so what I would do is take the bare wire and store them it seems that you can get a very good price for the 80 percent then just straight romax thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother

    • @HHRecycling
      @HHRecycling  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @josephcormier5974 That's my thoughts. It's super easy to rip the ground out and then you are actually getting ahead. I can still hang onto the 80% in case things change and I need some melting copper. Thanks, Joe. I hope your summer is going well. It's probably pretty humid, I am guessing.

    I like the brass plate. It may be red brass !! Romex isn't worth stripping because you lose the weight of the coating. I've always stripped it. To each their own I guess!!

      @@scrappingonthefly77 yeah, it's pretty cool. I think it's yellow brass, but the rust makes it look red. Yeah, everyone will do what they like doing. I will keep the loose stuff in case I ever want to strip it but the tight stuff can be sold.

      @@brycewiborg8095 That's a good skill. Microwaves are 100% scrappable. There's a bunch of insulated copper wire, awesome magnets and possibly a couple pounds of #2 copper if it's not an aluminum transformer. I'll try to find a video and link it here.
