Scrap Yard Price Check on Election Day!

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

Dang Ben, you really inspire me. Im only 14 years old and recycle any metal I can get. Unfortunately my parents scold me if I get out on the streets scavenging for metal so I must do it secretly. Its one of my only passions and you keep the dream alive. Awesome video

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

They dont like me scavenging for metal. They think its illegal and gross. Im a diehard scrapper. They let me scrap but wont let me scavenge for metal on trash day. So I have to creep out without my parents nowing

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

@The-Toy-Guy Yeah thanks man. I tell them all the time that I want to have my own spot with a giant hoard of metal in my own yard yet with a bunch and bunch of bins with a super neat yard and everything sort of like Ben. They just think im a wannabe scrap lord and a scuzzy scavenger. I creep out every saturday to scan trash bins for metal. Havent been caught yet.

[@jxavier3876]

Yeah man I’m 16 same deal, I’ve had to settle for ignoring steel because ain’t nobody got space for that.

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

@@jxavier3876 Shoot man. Youve got to start burying it lol. Ive got a yard 20 minutes away that will give me 2.38 a lb for #1 copper and 2.18 a lb for #2!!! I even save our steel cans lol. Im saving for my first vehicle with my scrap cash. Ive got a bucket of #1 copper that weighs like 40 lbs!!!

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

@M. W. ;)

[@patprop74]

I am always amazed by the amount of scrap you fit in that van, those guys at the yard are like the workers at home depot haha whenever you need help they are nowhere to be found, Your scrap prices are higher then they are here in Canada, Copper is sitting around 7.48 a kg, PVC copper is 2.10Kg, ext Alum 1.20Kg

[@ryanstruble5381]

That extruded price is awesome. About triple what I get here in Illinois, USA. Thanks for the update and you’ve really got the place whipped into shape

[@toomaskotkas4467]

You know, you've been watching Ben's videos for some time if you could recall the street scrapping episode when Ben picked up that fence door with chicken mesh.

[@SollersScrappingandDiving]

Ha! Brilliant, totally know what you mean lol!

[@robertgerber2533]

I’m convinced that Bens passion for scrapping and recycling is unmatched anywhere. That’s why we watch.

[@SollersScrappingandDiving]

@@robertgerber2533 He is just brilliant to watch isn't he, he was the first person I watched, and so inspiring and I loved it so much that I have now found many other wonderful scrappers to watch too and have my own very fledgling scrap hobby channel. He opened my eyes to the wonderful world of taking things to pieces and is such an inspiration!! I also love his whole set up there! We have just gone into a second lockdown and this channel pretty much got me through the first one!!

[@toomaskotkas4467]

[@josephonesta6416]

Great video. Must feel good to off load the weight and get the space. Good for You!

[@aluminumcantheif6557]

Were those hard drive platters in your irony aluminum load?

[@Slavicplayer251]

the platters have sliver in the not sure why he chucks em’

[@WWEAlanardo]

Love these types of videos just wish they were on longer

[@geoffupton]

ben... someones swiped all your ewaste and stuff!!! 😳😉😂 wow! you have gone beyond sorted! well done! 😊 now the catch will be... can you keep the levels down to what they are?! 😳 scrapper chook looked a bit bored with nothing to scrap! 😂😂😂 i bet if you watched a vid from, say 6 months ago and look at the garden then and compare to now your jaw would drop! you deserve a holiday (not mumbai this time lol) im guessing your very proud of yourself, and so you should be too! thats a hell of a big sort to do! nice work!

[@darrelldillon5658]

Your understanding of politics in the un free states of america seems to be spot on, the money controls the strings on the puppets and the peasants think they have a choice. Your chickens have more freedom and are better behaved.

[@sojourner1511]

You nailed it dude.

[@zlatanmorrison8182]

Solid prices there Ben :) thx for the vid.

[@wnytrashtrucks]

Prices are looking good here in America has well. I just did a big run yesterday

[@GHOSTHUNTER30]

Thankfully everything seems to be holding steady across the board.

[@sharonironman4547]

Nice can you video the payment you received and UK on lockdown again for a month

[@tawnihaynie1065]

☺☺☺😇 Just a really great job Ben. Stay safe and keep on doing what you do best. Have a sunshine day to you and yours. Talk to you later my friend. ☺☺☺😇😇😇

[@donnierobertson3088]

Great job and video like always

[@ainteasybeingwheezy]

just going into second lockdown tomorrow supposedly till second of December, i can't see it ending then so Ben you better keep posting vids regular

[@TheUltimateRecycler]

Prices sure are healthy at the moment!! Thanks for the update Ben - pretty much exactly as I was quoted this week from Manhari. How long do you think the prices will hold as they normally drop close to Christmas time?

[@markthomas625]

That is the highest I have seen prices here in a long time.

[@barrywest3758]

Wow Ben, those are great prices you got! Cha-ching. Thanks, I hope you are able to hit the streets soon. Really enjoyed 👍

[@mfullerton39]

Do hard drives go for aluminum? Also, are there different grade of ferrous material I should sort my material for a better price?

[@americasfavoritehoarder]

I brought a truck full in to the scrap yard the other day. It feels good to clean up.

[@LukeTEvans]

to the scrap heap with it!

Hello Ben we are going into lockdown in the UK tomorrow. I just hope the virus goes soon. I love your videos. Do you miss your street scrapping?

[@LukeTEvans]

we must scrap coronavirus.

[@dns938]

You have some damn good prices over there

[@tristangwithian4010]

Hi Ben. As you are already taking the boards off the hard drives and your client has taken the lid off to get to the platters, why don't you strip the whole case? You had extruded Alumimium at $1.75/Kg but you're only getting 45c /Kg for the irony-Al. With the lid off and the board and platters gone, you'd have the rest of the contents out in under 60 seconds, surely? Thanks.

[@gummyroid]

Some of those prices are half or even less @ Norstar in Bayswater...WTF :(

[@markthomas625]

I seriously doubt there is a scrap yard anywhere in the state with better prices than that.

[@susanpiele3372]

Are you back to Street scrapping yet?

[@susanpiele3372]

Just added note you know all about American politics as much as we do here in America

[@eWasteBen]

Not yet, It's too far away from me

[@Moth11]

Hey bro love the grind watch out for metal splinters. The earth thanks you for your work 🌍🌍🌍

[@LargeMonkeys]

so with my collection of cables from fans/tvs/vacuums, is it worth stripping?

[@eWasteBen]

No, sell it as mid grade insulated wire, no plugs.

[@mikehasit73]

nice video Ben. Days later we are still waiting for an election winner. its a mess !

[@speedy6457]

You didn’t tell us how much you got for your scrap ???

[@binzeno]

he cant tell bcoz the tax lol

[@donniebrown2896]

@@binzeno he chooses not to, that's his right. The government already knows how much he gets paid, no cash, direct deposit to his bank.

Youre copper prices are awesome there even higher than i get in holland and i get dealer prices

[@ewastecoalition6416]

It's so rewarding emptying out all that junk from the warehouse/truck. It's not worth much, but it takes up a lot of space and at least pays for gas/lunch that day.

[@0802turtleman]

It’s driving me nuts you only have one glove on!

he scrapped the other one

So excited I can't type

Excellent video today do you scrap out really good high end gaming pcs if so you should sell them on and do you donate money to charities that need some just could do with some clarity on this sorry to bother you I know you are very busy happy scrapping are there any street scrapping ❤️

dammit some guy snipped off my cord!

[@Moth11]

Hey bro are you out in Tottenham recycling this stuff? Next time let me know and you can come to my joint have a cup of tea

[@thestrangeingot7913]

Buddy you left money on the table. Stripping the wire first would have raised the value!!!

[@Slavicplayer251]

to much work.

[@mrdando]

You don’t go up to the scales do you trust them that weight would be correct ben

[@LukeTEvans]

if it was true then he would scrap their entire industry

[@pyredynasty]

I don’t know why but watching people throw metal onto the pile makes me feel lighter.

[@LukeTEvans]

especially when they throw like the hardly valuable metal that it is.

[@madhanmech200]

Price of copper is sky high it's around 9.15 AUD in India. Good video.

[@hermenegildoc3933]

In Spain is 6 euro per kilo

[@markjohnson7887]

Doing steel here in Canada is WAY easier. Drive on scale, dump steel on big pile, drive back on scale, get money. Bins for steel is just a waste of time. Aussies are funny. lol

[@markjohnson7887]

seriously though. Takes him over 6 mins to empty the steel out of his van. Here, that's about 1 min, tops.

scrappers never do things with other youtubers. cant get in the way of the business. no room for friendship in the scrapping business.

[@roymcdonald543]

Ben, at the rate America is going at least North America, the United States portion of North America. The absolute best thing this country could hope for is a 6 month lock down. They will never do it. I am in the state of Iowa in the central United States, We currently have the worst Covid rate in the entire world. I am personally hiding from the world right now. Shit is getting bad here.

I used to be nice to scrapyards here in the states. But they treat everyone like you're a crook. So I just leave all the plastics on my loads. Make more money.

[@markjohnson7887]

So you'll take the time to strip some things down to their tinniest parts, but you don't take apart hard drives? Here that's a difference between getting 4 cents/pound to getting at least 30 cents/pound or 50 cents on a good month. How odd.

Trump is alot different than any politician I've seen in my lifetime, over 50 years. Most have those strings attached, except if Trump has them its the first time I haven't seen the strings like all the others!! We still have all the freedoms we had 4 years ago which is the first time EVER!! Like you guys down there our freedoms usually get nibbled at by every president, except Trump!!

[@danielwharton4088]

a lot has changed for the better with Trump. wish you would not talk politics. I'm a long time subscriber to your channel, however if you continue political narrative I'll unsubscribe. I can get political points of view in many different ways. not trying to be an A hole, I watch your videos to get away from that shite.
