In another place I hang out, we're discussing a tower that was

327 ft tower, weighing ~135 tons, that's a lot of bent steel.

But the story is, it was not sellable as scrap because it was
galvanized. They ended up burying it on-site!

You guys know lots more about steel than I do, so why is it you
can't reuse galvanized steel?

Sounds like bull**** to me.

Scrap yard that I frequent takes galvanized steel just as well.

They really could not care less.
