Scrap metal prices
today i took a load of tractor and mower remains to the scrap yard for recycling,the price is now 3 cents a pound here for light iron. if it gets any lower i will have to pay them to get rid of it. i know its not just here in the northeast where prices dropped alot. you know its bad when the guy who would ride his bike snipping electrical cables off junk for the copper quit.......

Last pile I took to the scrap yard didn't even cover my gas. Don't even ask me about my oil stock.

Scrap prices are really low here in Mid Michigan too. Been that way since the fall of 2014. They seem to think it will be this way for a time.

Scrap isn't any good here either, I've been setting on a little over 800 lbs of copper wire (extension cords, Christmas lights and the like) and a couple hundred or so pounds of #1 and #2 wire for awhile now.
Building another shed to keep it in will eat into the profit that I would have made from it.

Maybe the low prices for scrap is in our favor as collectors. More people may not be scrapping but choosing to sell their cubs and if they are not running, then those prices will be lower--toward scrap prices, which equates to lower prices for us and others like us. Well, that is my take on the optimistic old adage, "the glass is half full".
800 lbs. of copper, Yosemite Sam....  , that is quite a collection and I cannot imagine all of the Christmas lights it took to add up to that. ....and a lot of old penny slugs (reminds me of the song, "Nuttin' for Christmas").Cub Cadet 123

unfortunately the public has no idea scrap is this low,i still see ads for scrap metal either for free or sometimes they want money like they are doing people a favor. i will agree there are less vultures out there looking to make beer money with every piece of metal that can be scrapped. it was bad here years ago,they where stealing guard railing and street signs

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
