I stripped the alum windows I took out of my house and took it to Gouldens Scrap.

It's North of Brownsville.

8 alum windows netted $36.

I' stripped this wire.. so it's Bare #1 i'm guessing.... Then everything I turn around I find something else to take there.. So I just need to load up and go...I'll have a bunch of radom stuff... I remember there's an old axle at moms, a rear bumper off my old truck... Some old windows,and sliding glass door tracks,an intake, a full bucket of nails..etc..

[quote][b]FlounderAssassin (5/30/2008)[/b][hr]you probably wont get much for the nails...but take them anyways since you are going to go to the scrap yard. copper should still be pretty high...not sure of the actual price though. every once in a wile me and a buddy of mine take loads of srap metal for extra cash. we alwas use GSI...i cant remember the name of the street its on but if you are headed down town on mobile hwy, when you go over the over pass just past new warington rd take a left at the first red light and follow that street a little ways and then you will take i believe its your first left and its right there on the left....across the street from cathloic high.[/quote]Thats Goulding Scrap Yard. Corner of Green St and Hollywood. Across the st from the Old Brownsville Middle School.

yall aint kidding.....me and my dad cleaned up the yard today...we got about 700lbs of scrap.......stripped old couches and cut some old trailors we had in the yard...lots of work...but its better to get paid to dump it then pay to dump it.

Yes, that's what I was thinking also.. I should make money off of it all at once, instead of paying someone to get rich off of me... or just to throw it away.. But I did'nt think about the windows until now.... I dont care if I get a few bucks for it.. It's still some money along with the copper price..

no matter where you go take everything metal you have! no sense in paying to dump it when you can get paid to dump it! expically since your already going to be making a trip anyways!
