Default Re: Arizona wrecking yard closing up

The outrageous price of scrap now is making a lot of the old yards pack it in, the money is insane. A friend of mine is cleaning out 30 years worth of old cars at his facility, he is getting $4000 a tractor trailer flatbed load, they are doing 3 loads a day, 15 loads a week for a month ( he has a lot of cars)do the math. They show up with thier own on site crusher, payloaders etc and all he does is walk around the yard with a can of orange spray paint. His philosophy, I have 22 1960 T-Birds, I'll keep 5 and crush 17, easy money and you still have inventory
