Haven’t heard. I think @thefarminglad mentioned that steel was going up in the new year, that would probably effect scrap prices in time.Anyone have up to date prices for heavy scrap iron at the moment? I'm being quoted €80 per ton which I think is a bit low.
Got quoted 170 today from wiltons for heavy stuff
The transit driving minority were around last week looking for scrap for the first time ever, offering €200 for scrap cars. I offered them a length of pipe with a trigger on the end and a cartridge inside. Don't think they were expecting that.I have 3 scrap car vans lying around ,are they worth anything if I had to get them collected

Doubt they would have coughed up that much in reality, I’d say it was a nose around they were looking for with the promise of big money if they found more suitable stuff...that they could collect at their leisure...€200 for scrap cars it wasn't so long ago all could be got from scrap men direct was 50 or 60.
A neighbour caught some transit boys loading up from his scrap heap one day,they drove off down the lane away from him not realising it was a dead end,he was waiting when they came back up stood in the road with the shotgun😲,he made them unload his scrap then let them go on there way,he then rang the local police station to tell them what he’d done,he was only covering himself if they reported him,he never did hear anything and could really do with them back because he’s junk all over the place now.🤣The transit driving minority were around last week looking for scrap for the first time ever, offering €200 for scrap cars.

They got about ten steps from the van and it took them about five steps to get back into it. Social distancing was in place, we didn’t get within five lengths of a shotgun of each other.I hope they were not at the funeral a few days beforehand, all over the local paper here!!
Rang local scrap metal place today. Mollys and asked price. they quoted me 130 euro a ton. I said i can get 170 euro else where and all of a sudden they could give that too.
Rang 3 today , first was 160 collected , second was 130 delivered and third started at 120 delivered and then said he would look after me at 150 delivered. First lad is coming Monday , I just need the father to go missing for half a day now 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️Rang local scrap metal place today. Mollys and asked price. they quoted me 130 euro a ton.

He said collected, but dont know if i would trust the weight they would give me collected and i would need to sort the heap before they came, that is put all the heavier juicier pieces of metal on top of the pile.Delivered or collected?
I'm assuming the former! Youd never get too rich with them anyway.
