i dunno where your located, but there is a place off Buford hwy. If you go south on buford hwy, right across the street from Doraville Drivelines, there is a scrap place, i dunno how much they pay. Some black guy comes to my shop and gives us 20 bucks for like 500-1500lbs of scrap.

Jones Recycling between Braselton and Jefferson pays pretty well. I took my pickup full of fairly light metal and weighed out at 44 dollars. It's a half ton and hardly even lowered on thirty year old suspension, so it couldn't have been that much.

Hope that helps if you live up 85.

Monkey Roe (Monroe) has one that pays $8.50 per hundred. I would take it to Hugh Jones like mentioned before my post, last I heard they were paying out $11.50 per hundred. :eek:

i know we have a few scrap places up here but PSC seems to pay the most...dunno if there is one in Atl though. You better go ahead and take everything in while you can cause the whole state of TN has a 5day wait period before you get your money for copper because so many loser have been stealing it. i heard GA is next...
