Has anyone sold copper scraps lately?
moonartblue asked:
Tearing down an old shed in back of my house, I found copper tubing, I think it was used for plumbing, man who lived here years ago, worked on cars, lots of heavy metal parts, and junk under the house..The copper that I can get to is very bendable, looks like tubing, for plumbing? I heard that it is worth alot these days, alot means what? Thanks, and where do I sell it, and not get ripped? I do know that this is copper, had a plumber verify it.

It's worth 2.50 lb where I live..in FL. Not sure where you could go. We go to a scrap recycling place here in town. See if you have one near by.
We don't have to tell them where its from…not that it would matter. My husband works and is allowed to take the leftover scrap if the other workers don't take it. We just have a scrap pile and bring it back every couple of months. If you are not stealing it then I wouldn't worry about that.

Now they are pretty strict about recycling copper, you have to prove where you go it, if it is alot,cause folks are robbing construction site etc. Good luck take your Id etc so they don't think you are a hobo you feel me?

Depends where you are I guess. Clean #1 copper is worth about $3 a pound in northern Illinois right now.

I guess people are stealing copper everywhere these days. I've had jobs where we've pulled in wire on Friday and came back on Monday morning to find that it had been cut out or even pulled out of the conduit it was installed in. I agree with the people above…..take pics to prove where you got it from. CYA is always a good thing
