Just as handy bring it down. Have half the trailor loaded anyway. only half hour from athlone so it aint a bother

got 140 last week in imr duleek. got 90 for a copper cylinder:)

whelan1

brought an old 8 tonne meal bin in today, had asked them yesterday did it need to be cut down , they said no , just so long as it is empty:) then when we went intoday he took 20 euro off the price as he would have to cut it down- asshole:cool:

JohnBoy

€20 wouldnt buy many cutting discs for the grinder

viztopia

does anyone know if a copper cylinder is of any value if you are going to re plumb an old house. Thereis an old house of my grannies which i am considering renovating an there is an old cylinder in it which was working up until recently. it would be a bit stupid to sell it for scrap and then have to buy a new one!

They collected a load including an old car at 160 a tonne . If it was under 4 tonne there would be no payment. I got over 1000 Euro.
What is the vat situation with scrap ?. We are registered for Vat so paid it in and issued a docket . But some wise men said there was no need .

I have an ould mazda, should i pull the engine out of it to?? will they take the engine like?

Anyone know what heavy scrap is making. I've an auld tracked digger, she must be 13 ton.

Dusty87

Just if anyone is interested. Hammonds lane, athlone quoted me 100e a tonne. I went to mountmellick in the end. A1 metal recycling i think its called, 130e a tonne. Just if anyone around the midlands is thinking of going with a load, my advice would be ring around.

Dupont

went to haughey in keady on saturday got 170pounds a tonne for scrap steel

blue5000

Hi Jack c
you should be able to get 200e a ton for a digger, shop around.

thats heavy steel yea? Would buckets and ould farm machinery be included in that? I mean the real ould heavy mower yokes. I did say to the man in mountmellick about the buckets and he said its still scrap metal so maybe they only give one price for all.

Have a trailer load or 2 of scrap metal lying about just wondering where is giving the best price per tonne in the meath westmeath area.

Dusty87

I just got a rough price of the lads here and rang around my local area to see who was best. Around 130 a tonne is good but the uncle got 160 a tonne last week. I think because he had a lorry and vanm load and will again this week as its for charity. I reckon 130+ would be sound

toshy321

Yea seems too be around that kind of price alrite the best iv got was 150 from Wallace Mullingar doubt i'll do much better than that.

Our football club got Eur200 per ton (collected) in the last few weeks. Lorries that collected it were Hammon Lane, but I think they were sub contracted by the Dublin Docks based buyer.

went with the ruscon trailer to duleek last week-left the silage sides on and just dumped it in over-had anything from an old whisk agitator to rebar- 1.9ton which was a bit disappointing but still got 290

futurefarmer

Anyone know the nearest place i could take a load from Clare ?

Thanks for your Help

blue5000

Probably Limerick city on ballysimon rd, hegartys. But that depends where you are in Clare;)

futurefarmer

Had a look on line and nearest i could find was Clonmel !!! So ballysimon road doesnt look so bad, im in west Clare though

whelan1

United Metals are across the road from Hegarty's, and also South West Bins in North Kerry seem to be very active with scrap, probably hitting Clare region via the Ferry

whelan1

€105 for 600kg.... sent my husband with another load:)

Oranmore metal near the roundabout in Oranmore, (RHS across the railway line) take metal, may be an easier run for you.

snowman707

just be wary in the midwest region if you intend getting scrap collected, there are a couple of foreign nationals with a official looking truck and paper work, calling to farms, who promise the "boss" will post the cheque as soon as the load is weighted.

these guys are not working for the firm they claim and the guards would like to chat to them.

2 farmers are out of pocket to the tune of about €3000 in Tipperary

futurefarmer

Thats good to know,

thanks for all the help lads

blue5000

Hi snowman, any idea what the truck looks like?

98 LK plates Green cab freshly painted , crane , body of truck is battered looking, aluminium sides

one of them was calling to farms in an old dark blue diesel toyota aventis and saying the lorry was in the area to day , they havent been seen since so maybe in a different area now

just do it

Ring the ones in Limerick and the one mentioned in North Kerry. I see the lorries regularly around, it may suit you better for them to collect. Let me know how you get on as I'm in West Clare as well...

caseih

anyone go with scrap metal lately or hear what its making?...

masseys scrap and zetors no better

yous are getting very low prices down there,just there on saturday is was in co derry with a load on behind the tractor,£195 per tonne oversize.£205 per tonne if everything is under a certain size, 3x4 foot i think.£195 amounts to €235 per tonne.im in donegal,i left here at 6.20am and was in campsie industrial estate in derry at 7.45am in the tractor.local scrap yard is offering €180 per tonne but it always pays me to take it to derry,only costs me around 50-60 euro on diesel.
