There is a way to make money through metal sales, most of which can be found right on the street. If you are not intimidated by the fear of getting dirty or spending some of your time looking for materials, then you may well open a profitable business to earn money from scrap metal.
It is necessary
- - Latest prices for scrap metal;
- - a spacious car for placing bulky items;
- - instruments.
Instructions
Step 1
Start collecting any scrap you see, for example, while driving on the road. Highways are replete with pipes, hubcaps, metal bumpers and other items that can be reused.
Step 2
Expand your scrap metal sales by finding out the date of the massive garbage collection from the city and area. This is the best time to find scrap metal, especially after homeowners start cleaning their homes in the spring. Old microwaves and air conditioners will do, as well as metal shelving and tool boxes.
Step 3
Place an ad in your local newspaper. You can set up a free pick-up service for large metal items such as stoves and refrigerators, for which you will be paid money. Potential clients will only be grateful to you for your help in getting rid of the obsolete technique. However, you will need a vehicle large enough to accommodate large items.
Step 4
Visit the websites of local municipalities and apply for a metal trade permit. In most cases, you will be allowed to survey local landfills in order to resell old metal products.
Step 5
Bring a set of essential tools with you when you go looking for materials. A hacksaw, screwdrivers and various wrenches will help when there is no way to carry a large item. But disconnecting copper fittings or metal pipe can be your lifesaver. Recycle the scrap into any suitable items of your choice. In any case, a lot will depend on the amount of material that you were able to collect, so everything is in your hands!
