Scrap Metal
Other
I’ve just cleared friends garage and garden for him and had do a couple of runs to the tip to dump rubbish. I sorted out all the old scrap metal bits and just took a boot full to the scrap man.
I only got £16.70p for it but if I’d have taken it to the recycling centre I would’ve got £0.
First time I’ve weighed in scrap. Anyone else do this. I know it’s not a fortune but every little helps
Great....I do this with clothes...there are places where u can sell them and they still pay some pounds for them.
It’s one of the reasons that lots of people used to get metal items pinched from outside their homes, and shopping trolleys used to go missing in my area
SarahHorsfield ah yes, that was very lucrative at the time, and it perhaps still is, as a lot of places melt them down to make new things
Ive done it with clothes but never thought about metal. I cleared my garden out last weej aswell
you don’t get loads of cash. He did give me £10 for a broken cat converter of my old car. That was worth doing cuz I almost took it to the recycle centre
Years back when I had my central heating done the chap offered to remove my scrap. I said no I will do it and I took the boiler and pipe to the scrap. They issued me with £115 of cash. That was a good day
Blimey that was a good day ! The scrap man said that prices weren’t that great at the moment but I was quite happy with the £16 I got. At least it paid for my petrol Even if I didn’t get rich
