Prepared #1 HMS

Any metals smaller than 2' x 5' in size. NO non-ferrous attachments, such as lead, aluminum, brass or copper. Clean Wheel rims may be included. NO sealed containers, such as car shocks, torque converters, belt rollers and tanks. Any sealed container must have two holes burned into the item, at least the size of a fifty cent coin. NO excess grease, oil or other contaminants.

Please note that due to the change in the market, all pipe will now be considered Prep #1 and must be no longer than 5' or larger than 8" in diameter. Larger diameter pipe must be split in two along the length of the pipe.

Prepared Plate & Structural (P&S)

I-beam, channel, angle, plate (minimum 1/4" thickness, no larger than 2' x 5'). No non-ferrous attachments.

Note:

• Truck Frames are not considered P&S due to the chemistry of the metal
• Pipe is no longer included P&S.

2' Plate & Structural (P&S)  NOTE:  Due to changes in the steel market, we are currently NOT buying a 2' grade.  2' P&S will be purchased for the same price as 5' P&S.

Any P&S that fits the 5' P&S specifications can also be made into a 2' P&S grade, which is max 2' x 2' in size. This grade typically pays at least $1.00 CWT more than 5' P&S. Pipe CAN be included in 2' P&S. Pipe must be no larger than 8" in diameter, or less than 4" in diameter.

Mixed (unprepared) Scrap

Any heavy gauge metals, not cut to prepared size, or that have non-ferrous attachments, sealed or "boxy."

Clean Auto Cast

Rotors, brake drums, truck hubs, clean heads, engine blocks, cam shafts, exhaust manifolds.

Engine blocks must be stripped of the following:

• Valve springs
• Spark plugs
• Pistons
• Crank shafts
• Water Pumps
• Electric Components

Wheel Rims

Dirty wheel rims (with valve stems and/or weights) are purchased for a premium price. They must be completely free of tires and rubber.

We do not split weigh loads, for the purpose of paying different prices for each grade in a truck. All materials will be bought for the lowest grade in the load. Engines and Transmissions will be split weighed.
