It's definitely a rainy day especially when some prices drop. Hopefully they will go back up sooner rather then later!

Here's what dropped:
CAC (HUBS AND ROTORS): $11.00 CWT
HEAVY MIXED STEEL: $8.00 CWT
P&S 4' (PREPARED): $12.00 CWT
(CWT = PER 100 Lbs.)

*Cars: keep in mind that we do have stipulations.
Anything 11 years or newer (2015 - 2026) we have to have a title.
Anything 12 years or older (2014 and older), no title needed, but have the VIN ready to give at the window when you check in.
No additional material allowed in the vehicle unless it's parts off that vehicle. No loose tires.
Most importantly, we do not take driven vehicles since the gas tank has to have a good fist size or bigger hole in the bottom of the gas tank. Or you can remove it, cut it in half and throw it back in the vehicle. The tank MUST be drained and dried.
Make sure all of this is completed or the vehicle WILL be rejected
