Whenever there is a war, as is currently the case in Ukraine, large quantities of copper and brass are needed for ammunition production. That is why the price of these metals is so enormously high. In the case of steel, this is limited as armored steel increases only slightly due to the slow production. Steel for cars has been decreasing for years because they now consist of an enormous amount of plastic. However, the price of aluminum would have to rise over the years because it is essential for the production of electric cars. Kind regards from Germany from Werner Dipl. Ing. Rheinmetall Def.

I make better money breaking down the power source than selling them whole. When I worked at a scrap yard, one of my jobs was breaking down computers. Is any of the wire strippable? Where do you get all those computers? Computers are one of those items where the pieces are worth more than the whole. I love batteries. There is nothing to do but bring them in. That is a huge scrap yard. Really enjoyed the video.

Those scrap prices in Australia are far better than what we get here in western Canada, even with your environmental tax, I just phoned for No.1 copper price and it's only 4.00 a pound Canadian. I live in a city of about 1 million. The majority (80%) of our Canadian copper gets shipped to the US so they're getting one hell of a bargain and it would be advisable to keep any copper people might have until copper gets revalued. Eventually that will happen because 80% of silver and gold comes from copper mining as a byproduct.
