Question:

What is the recycle value of copper?

I have some copper items I don't need. I heard I can scrap them 4 money. I also heard you can get ripped off. So I want to know the value so I won't get tricked.

Answer:

depends on the type f cope yo have (i.e. is it cable, stripped wire, buss bar, etc.). Some general price ranges for some grade of scrap copper are as follows: No.1 Heavy Scrap Copper 1.16 1.31 lbs USD No.2 Scrap Copper 1.02 1.17 lbs USD Soldered Copper Pipe Scrap 0.87 1.02 lbs USD Light Scrap Copper 0.87 1.02 lbs USD prices fluctutate on a daily basis...please check source for current pricing
It's high. And if you go to your local recycle place you're not likely to get ripped off.
