Hi, I keep hearing about how scrap metal prices have gone through
the roof and how abandoned car wrecks are a thing of the past as
they get snapped up by scarp metal men. Is this a myth? I wonder
if the growing shed of cast off diy metal brick-a-brack (castings,
bearings, assorted rubbish) is better taken to a merchants than to
the recycling center ? Does anyone have experience of the types and
minimum amounts of metalwork that are worth selling ?

Up here (Central Scotland) one company will come and pick up any car
and give you £100! changed days!!

Henry Grey (Kirkcaldy) has always done that. The price has gone up
slightly, from £80 some 20 or so years ago.

Got it (them) in one.....

Of course I did - I used to know all the scrap dealers/auto breakers
in Scotland, when I owned a scrapyard...! ;-)
