we generate dozens of metal and poly 55 gal. drums. These have had vegetable oils, and other natural non toxic products in them. No rust !. How much can I get for these, per 1b. They are around 40 lbs.ea.

Actually simon and sons pays more 4.5 cents a lbs for steel shred but you have to have at least 200lbs to get the deal. Schinzer steel by calbag metals only pays about 3 cents a lbs. Simon and sons id recommend.

that may have been true then but not any more

Tacoma Metals doesn't pay much for shred . You should take them to Cowbag metals
