I don't understand then. No one is ever going to retire on stainless steel recycling unless you are selling ship loads of it to China. The cost to store and move a ton of stainless scrap exceeds any value it will ever be worth.

We have roll-offs of scrap metal that we sell back to dealers and I have been watching non-ferrous like a hawk for many years. There are some parts we stamp from brass and copper where the scrap is the profit on the job.
