We managed to "dig up" 300 kg of black metal in our garden. I put things in order, decided to dispose of some of the metal, convert it into banknotes.

Perhaps you are wondering, where does the excess metal come from in the garden? It's simple, a year ago I took apart an old bathhouse, and all this is good from her:

  • A metal stove made of thick metal, but worn out. It contains about 100-150 kg. Previously, they did not spare metal for such things.
  • The pipes lying in the ground, they were the basis for the gazebo.
  • And roofing iron, many single sheets.

Having loaded all this stuff into live. After lunch I went to the metal reception. Securely fastened the load with ties. Because it was required to go 30 km to the ferrous metal acceptance base.

Nothing boded trouble, but approaching the city I was stopped by a traffic police officer. Immediately I thought, how am I going to explain the origin of my "treasures"

Whatever they say about the employees, but I was lucky. He checked the documents for the car, trailer, asked about insurance and let go with God. Without even asking where I got such goodness in the cart.

Then I drove up to the first metal acceptance, the price tag of 19,000 made me happy.

But I decided to check the price tag on the next one and hand over my metal there. On another base, they also offered the same price. Apparently in all ferrous metals the prices are the same.

Having driven on the scales, the mass of a car with a trailer was 1650 kg.

And after unloading 1340. When calculating, it turned out that he brought the good for 310 kg. After all these procedures, a pretty girl at the checkout took my passport and began to calculate, as well as draw up.

As a result, as you can see from the document that was given to me at the checkout, the cost of one kilogram of used black metal is estimated at 19 rubles. And I received, for all my labors, with the legacy of the Soviet Union- Five thousand five hundred and ten rubles. The blockage took 5% of the total weight.

So, having cleaned the area from the old metal, I managed to earn more than 5,000 rubles in one day. By the way, if a technician drives along your dacha streets and offers to buy your ferrous metal, then do not contact them. They are usually in the mood for deception. Better save up and take out on your own!
