So if your actually looking to make profit in this
field you need to
deal in scrap by the truckload
Very true. Many refineries have a setup fee - generally pretty steep -
for every load brought in. If just a small load is brought in, the fee
can wipe out profit fast. Bring in several tons and the fee is just a
minor cost of business.
I am pretty sure the fee is to discourage the little guys.
