- I had a stripped front clip along with misc copper and aluminum to get rid of so I decided it was time to sell scrap metal for the first time. Loaded everything up on my dump trailer and headed to the scrap yard only to find out they couldn't take the front clip. Frustrating day!
worst feeling is being the guy that doesnt know how it works in a sea of regulars
😂 This was me 2 weeks ago
@@tykendrick800 bro im 30 feelin like my first day at kindergarten sometimes bout to call the scale lady mommy or something
@@steveH384 let me tell you, a truck in front of me drove onto the scale and I pulled right behind em. I didn't know we was on a scale. I can imagine how mad dude was
@@tykendrick800 LMAO well it happens, Good luck scrappin bro!
It was like that with my first wife.
I had a vehicle with no running gear I wanted to get rid of. I backed it out of the garage and started with a sawsall on the back and worked my way to the front. As long as it is in small chunks you can mix it with the shred.
You did okay. I have people ask me "what do you do with the metal you get?". Or "what happens to it". But you're right about copper. Copper cable, piping and brass is all I take and I do okay with that. I'm a small time scrapper and I always support channels, liked and subbed.
The guy mentioned a vin number is what caused your grief. Cut the fenders off and cut up the front so it isn't recognizable as a front end and it will go as scrap or cut it up and put out at the road and a scrapper will pick it up and take it in. Good yards try to make sure vehicles are not stolen.
You have to cut up most car parts small enough so it's not recognizable.
Especially if the metal piece
might have a ViN Num located somehow somewhere apon It 😉
That yard is super clean and calm. Wish we had near me. Where I go is decades old, mess everywhere, tight space, and have to deal with some super a-hole scrappers. The clip, just chop it up and bring in and then dispose of that VIN area since you are legit.
Aluminum is where the cash at. I just junked 1 20 in rim was surprised when I saw the total. I got like 60 for what I was gonna throw out for trash/scrappers
Good day If you are going to cut it up, u could still take it in to scrap yard. Thanks
I worked in a Steel mill 20 years & my Dad work on the scrap yards equiptment, seen some crazy shit ppl do ! No wonder our scrap yards r so tight on stuff !
I work at a scrap yard. It's crazy and frustrating but the DMV and State Police are really strict about cars, frames, and dashes with a VIN and no title or paperwork. If we're caught buying it they will pull our license.
Scrap yards are very rough businesses to operate and organize. That seemed like a fairly decent yard with a Fairly efficient system and fair prices... I would have taken that front clip off your hands in Colorado tho😉
I thought if u cut a car in half it was no longer a car...I guess it varies depending on state
I have only one yard near me and I get so nervous when I go up on the scale. If they don't take it for any reason I have nowhere else to dump it. I would have to go to the big city like 60 miles away.
Hey Adam new sub in the uk,good vid. Interesting to know that about cars. I've never tried to scrap a car but would imagine it's the same here in the uk.
Yeah pretty much. You need to take in the V5 document (proof of keeper) the scrap yard will fill in the bottom bit, i think it is green. They will give you the copy for your records. However they will ask you to remove the wheels or will charge you for disposal. TBH its easier to sell it to a trader who buys scrap cars, he will deal with all the cra...p
very friendly helpful staff though!
As a welder I always got some kinda scrap metal yrs ago cast iron was the thing get good money for I was doing some railings on an apartment buildings and the plumber pulled out several cast iron bathtubs I got 57 dollars each I loved that about a month after that the same called me said he had one come get well I did he helped me load the heavy ass tub well for that one I got a whole. $5.70 cents not even enough to put some diesel back in my tank nor if I drank coffee to buy some coffee needles to that was my last trip to the scrap yard now when I got scrap metals I put them out some random scraper pick them up
The hig price was probably back in 2007-2008
Thank you for the video.
That’s ok sir every day we learn something new
Definitely not strange nowadays. I've scrap cars with no title but it's a pain in the ass . Cutting it all up so ass it's not a car no longer is the key
Nothing like learning on the fly lol
Gotta chop up that part
I’m jus now watching this …I use to get cars with no title n I would cut in PCs n take back….curious what ya ended up doin?
dobra robota👍pozdrawiam serdecznie z Polski 👍
I've always had problems outta that scrap company the one I go to one h only have to fill out an afadvid and the take it no matter how new the vehicle is or old
They are not supposed to take a catalytic converter without a title
I think this would be a perfect example for Weis melting would come in handy because of you can make a bunch of bars out of it they would never know it was a vehicle and you would not need a title just sign the paperwork
If you cut it up the clip with the sawzall they don't care. If it's complete they want the paperwork.. Hide the parts underneath regular light scrap. I brought all the doors and fenders and hood one time, the scrap yard didn't ask me for paperwork.
That's what I'll do next time. Live and learn!
i go to alter all the time most people just cut them up supper small
Ya did get 138 bucks, ( and nice return on cat converter ) put the scrap out on the curb and let a scrapper deal with it, (sounds like your only dealing with about 30 bucks) , he'll be a regular at scrap yard and get it through. There are more rules at a scrap yard than playing golf 😀
That’s for sure. I ended up cutting it up and sending it out with the trash over several weeks!
@@adamj8293 Adam, I don't blame ya, I probably would have done same thing. Scrap yards need that kind of scrap resources and they will eventually bully people out of getting product. He was probably looking for you to spring a 20 out of your pocket and let ya pass - like those pieces could have been made into a car - revenge is a dish best served cold" 😀 It won't take long for them to rust away and put iron back in the soil. ...and hey, ya solved the problem.
$30 bucks at those prices? He got $0.10 for aluminum. He wouldn't get much more than $10 for 300 lbs almost 2 years ago.
@The Artist Formerly Known as R.T. it blew me away when he said 10 cents for aluminum. That's so bad. Man has the market turned great in the last 2 years
In my country you can even sell wood,not kidding.they buy everything in one place.
Screw that. That's BS
The money has never been in scrap metal. 200 pounds wil get you about $15 in my area and those who only scrap metal end up with blow-out backs and living in tents in the woods.
The problem with aluminum is: it's very light and takes a lot of it to add up to anything.
Brass is good because it's heavy but it''s not very common anymore.
#2 copper, #1 copper and bare-bright copper are going u, up, upp and up higher. It's now $3.31 per pound in my area. The reason it keeps going up is because the price of mining it keeps going up and China is willing to pay us good money for recycled copper instead of paying the mining prices.
Today 7/6/22 - Copper is king and it's everywhere... ya just have to dig a little.
Hi i am new from PH🥰🎈❤️🙏🏽
If it wasn't for thieves stealing cars, keeping what they want, and scrapping the rest...we wouldn't have to worry about VIN numbers. Same as copper wire. When you have a lot of it, you need a business license that shows you work with that stuff. Too many thieves. At least where I'm at.
Id chop it up and mix with other steel scrap.
If I owned that yard I would have probably just taken it and immediately break it up.
You used to throw away copper 🥺
Cut the car to a million pieces and the scrap yard wouldn't know
10 cents for aluminum, 10 cents for radiators, and $1.50 for copper? Wow, i would laugh in those guys face if they quoted me those prices today. Its so crazy how much aluminum and copper prices have risen in just 2 years.
Turns up at a scrappy with a camera,where he ain’t known.get back in the office son
Put it on Craig’s list.
Can’t believe I didn’t think about that. You can get rid of ANYTHING in the free Craigslist ads. Next time.
now ya know why theres so much crap dumped on the back roads an in the woods
2:57 top left is your adress name and other shit. Watch out!
You didn't remove your signature
You should
Make scrap metal art with it.
Anything with a vin is a cut and dump for me
thats really odd, im in Canada and every time I bring a car no matter how new then never ask questions.
You do give them the ownership with the vehicle though, correct?
Nope well at least in prince Edward island
That's because Canadians don't commit crimes...
@Paul Tilley I see a sense of humor isn't your strong suit.
What state is this price r crap
When in doubt.... saw it up, melt it down and give them a block lol Cant say a damn thing then
A lot of scrapyards really dont like you selling ingots to them
03/23/2021
Where I live they pay you in cash.
Aluminum Radiator worth much more than 10 cents a pound.
Not if it has plastic tanks on the ends... Aluminum Breakage
Cut it all up and toss the plastic in trash bring back the piece to scrap yard
I went to sell scrap today they refused me said we dont take rail road spikes a ton of them around the woods where i was nobody wanted them i loaded them the yard said nope cant take them its bs!
Rip the tag off cut it up make it look like, not a car. If you don't want to do that effort another scraper may be happy to help you out with removal
Yeah cut it up...
thats bs ares takes it dont go to big city scrap places because of that bs
Just rent a gas circular saw and cut it in to small pieces and take it back to scrap yard. Should have did that in first place.
Take you 2 minutes
Agreed hot saw way to go
Didn't ya hear him ?he said this was his first time!! Not everyone knows how the fucking process works bigmouth !!
It cost more to rent a gas circular saw then you get from the scraps that you cut
Like you I didn’t know you need that. Kansas
When he said title or junking certificate you reminded of the loogie that wanted to go to work cause it wad Taco Tuesday, but she took Musinix instead.
wtf?
FOR 🚙 YOU MUST HAVE THE ACTUAL TITLE
Don't ever take converters to a scrap yard.. You'll get steel prices which on average it only brings 8$-10$ every hundred pounds
Also depends on the company you deal with as well.
He just said he got $120 for it
@@cjj-er5ip exactly.. he could've gotten a hell of a lot more.
@ItsJustGravy how much did that little converter weigh if he got $120 at $8 to $10 a hundred pounds?
@mrgoodtimes05 like I said, scrap yards will take it as steel. Not all but some.
@mrgoodtimes05 the one I worked at, would deal with people who had dealers licenses and take them in for what the metal was worth. If a regular customer came in with some, we let them know they'll be getting steel prices.
You can sell to me
I buy metal scrap
if you saw it into pieces you could head back to the yard they wouldn't send you to the junked auto section
L video + no copper + fail vin number + ratio
