Look for yards with transparent pricing and good customer service ratings on platforms like Yelp .

Mixing high-value and low-value metals often results in the buyer paying the lowest price for the entire load. 3. Finding a Buyer

If the magnet sticks, you have steel or iron. These are common but generally have a lower price per pound than non-magnetic metals.

Call a few yards beforehand; prices fluctuate daily based on market conditions. 4. What to Expect at the Scrapyard

Yards pay more for "clean" scrap because it requires less processing on their end.

You can find local buyers by searching for "scrap metal yards" or "recycling centers" in your area.

Keep thick, clean steel (prepared steel) separate from "light iron" (tin or shred like appliances).
