Metal Monday: Light Iron or Sheet Iron?

IMG_4856iScrappers…What’s UP?!

With all of the metals jumping around we want to talk about one that is harder to peg down then most are…light iron. While there are multiple names for Light Iron, sheet metal, sheet iron, just to name a few. Light iron is generally referred to most steel items that are brought in by scrappers such as washers, dryers, and most other items found inside of your homes.

Light iron can often be confused if you do not classify it correctly. Sometimes people will call it unprepared steel, but it is always important to know what it is called so you are able to get the right classification when picking the material up as well as selling it.

Light iron will be allowed to have some plastics attached, but try to clean it the best that you can so you are able to not have deductions on price or weight at the yard when you go to sell.

Until next week….scrap ya later!!!!!
