Used And Scrap Batteries Buy And Sell

Used And Scrap Batteries Buy And Sell
I mostly got these batteries by seeing and asking for them. New cars wreck batteries pretty quick because the car computer never really turns off. So if the car isn't driven regularly it'll over-discharge and sulfate the battery.
 They give me their dead batteries also.
I picked up a few behind service stations and parts stores where people had orphaned them. A few came from my marina next to the dumpster, more came from the marine supply store. I told them I was experimenting with desulfating batteries and they told me to help myself to their scrap pile. Some came back to life from various magic treatments and I gave them to friends or built them into projects.
I finally got around to taking the bad ones to the scrapyard and damn! 
Here's what the robo-cashier at the scrapyard gave me for my load of toxic waste!
Batteries are worth real money now, if you can find the right buyer.

The market goes up and down. Right now the dollar is low and China and India are buying scrap like crazy to sell it back to us as products. That drives up scrap values. Our military shooting and attracting bullets all over the world doesn't hurt the value of lead either. Check the values online or in your paper, if it has a commodity markets listing.
You'll get less than this, because you're not selling a train car full. Unlike retail economics, in collection economics smaller quantities are worth less per pound.
If you're in a city with a port that ships to China, expect to get a higher price than elsewhere.
If you have a huge quantity, bargain up for a higher price. The yards that load ships won't usually bother with you unless you've got truckloads, but if you do, they'll pay accordingly higher.
"TL" means "Truck Load". "LTL" means "Less than Truckload".

If you run into a scavenger with a truck or a shopping cart full of cans, ask them what the best places are to sell different kinds of scrap. 
Now call those places, other local scrapyards and recyclers and ask them if they buy what you have and how much they pay.
Within 5 miles of me (and the port of Oakland) I heard prices ranging from 
"No", a battery", "fifteen cents a pound" and "twenty cents a pound". 
They're allowed to offer you whatever they want. It's a business and they have expenses.
They'll ask you how much you have. If you say you have more, they may offer a better rate.

Stop at the scrapyard office and ask them what to do. We waited in a line of other trucks for a while til one of those guys told us that since we just had batteries, we could drive right in. 
Once inside the yard, they had us load our batteries on a cart, push the cart onto a scale. 
They asked me for ID, my address, and had me sign a form promising that I was the lawful owner of the stuff I was selling them. There's been a big problem in the city with "copper miners" stealing metal wires, pipes, etc. to recycle for money, so there's a law requiring this form. 
Then they printed me a reciept with a barcode at the bottom. 

"Behind the woman in yellow is a little room like a closet. Scan the barcode there and the ATM will give you your money. You'll get the dollars, but you won't get the coins." 

Here's the ATM, and the sign saying that they'll write you a check for the coins if you really want them to. 
I hadn't looked at the reciept, so I was pretty amazed when hundred dollar bills started spewing out of the machine. I guess those batteries weighed more than I thought they would.


I was very surprised, and pissed, to find how very little I was being given to current, soon to be ex, battery buyer. I don't mind someone making some money, but I don't like getting ripped off. And docking  for batteries with a brake in the side of it, called three different buyers yesterday and none of em did that either.Scrap yards usually won’t accept other types of batteries, as they are too difficult to scrap. On the iScrap App you can locate and contact scrap yards anywhere in your area and get the latest battery prices for your batteries for scrap. Scrap yards generally do not want lead battery that are leaking or may have the potential to break open so they can maintain a safe working environment.
Car and truck batteries normally weigh between 30 and 75 pounds and are always a great way to make a couple of extra dollars when you are going to cash your material in

Used Compressor And Scrap Compressor Buy And Sell

Used Compressor And Scrap Compressor Buy And Sell
Refrigerant flows through the compressor, which raises the pressure of the refrigerant. Next the refrigerant flows through the condenser, where it condenses from vapor form to liquid form, giving off heat in the process. The heat given off is what makes the condenser "hot to the touch." After the condenser, the refrigerant goes through the expansion valve, where it experiences a pressure drop. Finally, the refrigerant goes to the evaporator. The refrigerant draws heat from the evaporator which causes the regrigerant to vaporize. The evaporator draws heat from the region that is to be cooled. The vaporized refrigerant goes back to the compressor to restart the cycle.
I am new to the forum and I love the place already. Really useful information from very nice people ... 
I am getting started with recycling and have some questions, I still haven't been able to figure out clearly, please guide me ...
1) What sort of compressor have copper and what have Aluminum ? 
I read somewhere that the smaller ones 8,10,12 lb have Aluminum and Larger Ones 20,24,26 lb have Copper
Someone else told me the 110 V are Copper and 220 V are Aluminum ...
Is there any reality to this ? How do you judge which ones would have copper ? Is there a way to tell / estimate without opening / cutting ?
2) What is the average amount of Copper in a Compressor ? 5% ? 6 % ? 10 % ?
Say if I have a compressor weighing 10 lbs, how much is Steel, How much is Copper and How much is Oil ? 
3) What is the difference between Oil and Oil Free ? Is the make different ? Does one have more copper than the other ?
4) At what price do the scrap yards sell these compressors sealed units ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in anticipation.

Hello! and thanks for the great question! I’m glad you like by blog, and I hope you keep reading! With that being said, here is the deal with refrigerators:
The problem with refrigerators is the refrigerants, aka freon. Some people have the illusion that it is like breathing mustard gas, which couldn’t be farther from the truth! Freon is not that bad for people to breath. Yes, it isn’t good to breath, but it isn’t any worse than second hand smoke; so don’t worry about getting hurt if you break the freon lines.
The real concern with freon is its detrimental effect on the ozone when released. IF you are EPA certified, and you have the necessary equipment, only then can you legally pull the freon out of any scrap appliance, including.
Now the question most important question you can ask yourself is “Do I want to unsafely let freon out into the atmosphere?”
If you do, and get caught by the EPA, then you will have to pay a serious fine; Over $25000. (I haven’t heard of somebody getting into trouble for this while scrapping… yet.)
The freon lines are the copper lines in the bottom and back of the refrigerator, and the black condensor/evaporator coils. If you cut one of these lines with a bolt cutter, the refrigerants will come pouring out of them, along with some of the lube/oil from the compressor. If you cut the lines, you will buy cheap paroxetine online want to have the fridge in a place where you can let that oil pour out if it decides to. Then harvest the copper lines… The condenser coil is usually made of something other than copper, but check that for copper too (sometimes aluminum).
Inside of the compressor (the hollow black steel ball) is a motor with some copper windings, and a whole lot of oil. If you have the will power, take an angle grinder, sawzall, ect, and cut that sucker open along the welding joint. Sell the motor as is, or cut out the copper for scrap. If there is any non-magnetic stainless on the refrigerator, pull that off. I have found on occasion the inside of the refrigerator (the rails and shelves) to be aluminum  . Pull those it. Any wire you can manage to find should get cut off too.

My scrap yard, and possibly yours too, will take all refrigerators with the freon still in them. In that case, take anything valuable that you possibly can off the refrigerator without breaking the freon lines. This just makes for a cleaner work space, a cleaner environment, and cleaner conscious. If your scrap yard will NOT take refrigerators with freon, you will need to make a decision. You can cut the copper tubing lines, and possibly get a fine (I’ve never seen anybody get a fine, however), or you can call around to other scrap yards… In my experience, they will usually buy it when you bring it in, but not if you ask over the phone. The most time-consuming, but most profitable option, is to see if it works and sell it as a used fridge! Plug it in and see if anything is wrong. If not, you can always try to sell it on craig’s list. In almost all of my experiences, however, there is something seriously wrong, and its only value is scrap. Remember, that if you can sell it along with the mixed metal, to fill the inside with metal too. That way the refrigerator won’t take up too much volume. Thanks for the question and Good Luck Scrapping! If you or anybody else has any questions, and you think I may be of assistance, please ask!
