Resumo de How To Make Money Recycling Scrap Metal -1

Have you ever heard the term "Found Money"? Well, if there ever wassuch a thing then recycling scrap metals is it. Way back when I starteddoing it I got lots of strange looks from people when they saw mestopping along the road to pick up a piece of wire or a strip of carmolding. That was back before we recycled newspapers and household cansand bottles as is so popular today. Not only can you make some decent"pin" Money doing it, but it can become a decent hobby, especially forretired people.It's the easiest thing in the world to do. There is just so much ofit to be found it's almost like it comes to you. Just take a walk downyour street for just a few hundred yards and notice how many discardedmetal items you come across. Cans are the most common but, bits ofwire, hub caps, and all sorts of other things as well. Each of theseitems I've mentioned have a value. In some cases their value might besmall but, remember, it all adds up. When you accumulate, say, 50pounds of something, then you're starting to talk about money. Forexample, if you have 50 pounds of aluminum and the current rate for itis 25 cents a lb. then you have about $12 sitting there. Even if it'siron (which is heavy and 50 pounds of it is easy to find) it could beworth 50 or 60 cents.Some of you may still be thinking; "That's still peanuts and itwouldn't be worth my trouble". Think about it again. The fact of thematter is that it doesn't take very long to accumulate 50 pounds ofmetal. Aluminum and iron are the most commonly found and they add upvery quickly. A few aluminum doors and some gutters and you have fiftypounds. A wheelbarrel load of iron pipe and you have 75 to a 100 poundsof iron. If you really have an eye for spotting it you can collect 200pounds of metal in short order. Where and How to Find ItNow mind you, I'm not talking about doing all your hunting by justwalking down the street. Just train yourself to watch out of the cornerof your eye for curbside piles on trash day. You'll soon be amazed athow much you find. Storm doors, car batteries, gutters, pipes, bedsprings, sinks, copper tubing, and much more. All of these things areworth money and for years you've been passing it by never thinkingtwice about it.
