    Involved a company that commits to end dump and was wondering what the going rate to move scrap metal per ton in the NY area was. Any help
    would be much appreciated.

    Just came out of PA and it was $28/ton on crushed cars going back to Detroit. Steel prices are going up, so you've got that going for you.

    It did the scrap thing when prices were insane around 2012ish I believe and then it fell flat on its face. Alot of mills I dropped at went belly up down here

    Wow, they are almost $200 CAD per metric tonne here in Winnipeg/Selkirk.

    I believe he is referring to the rate per ton for moving it.
