✂️ Chopping Copper Tube for Scrap Yard Prep
Breaking down copper tubing for the scrap yard is all about boosting value while minimizing hassle. The process typically involves:
Sorting: Start by separating copper tubes from other metals or insulated wires. Clean, pure copper fetches a higher price.
Cutting: Use a pipe cutter, hacksaw, or reciprocating saw to slice longer tubes into manageable, uniform lengths—usually under 3 feet. This makes them easier to transport and more appealing to scrap buyers.
Cleaning: Strip away any solder joints, paint, or corrosion. Shiny, clean copper—often called #1 copper—is worth more than tarnished or dirty #2 copper.
Organizing: Bundle or box the chopped pieces to keep your load tidy and efficient for weigh-in.
Whether you're reclaiming pipe from a plumbing job or repurposing scrap from a project, taking the time to prep your copper properly can mean a real bump in payout. 💰
