Google Alert - Scrap metal

I constantly search the internet (or rather I have google search for me :-) and it is so hard to find anything but bad press about scrap collectors.  There is such an abundance of junk around if you know how to look for it that theft just to make a couple of bucks seems really stupid to me.

Most scrappies are hard working, honest people just trying to make ends meet, and I believe these thieves are just wrecking the good name of recycling and that stinks!

Learning to forgive is much more useful than merely picking up a stone and throwing it at the object of one's anger, the more so when the provocation is extreme. For it is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others. - Dalai Lama

The UAE alchemist who turned fields of scrap into a factory of gold

In his possession are rare tools with which he works his lucrative and ancient craft: Aqua Regia, the "royal water" that can dissolve pure gold; furnaces that glow amber and red at 1,100 degrees to melt crucibles of precious metal into a fiery liquid; supercharged electrolysis plates that attract particles of gold like a magnet. He has them all.

But, as is the case with all true alchemists, Mr Kaloti's fortune began as nothing more than a rag-tag collection of scrap metals that he wrought over half a century into what is today the biggest gold refinery, forge and mint house complex in the Middle East.

Tense wars for scrap metal - The Daily Barometer

Tense wars for scrap metal - The Daily Barometer

Demand for scrap metal has greatly increased, and so has the price.  Common metals like aluminum and lead fetch about a dollar per pound on today’s market. Copper goes for about $3.51 per pound while nickel and tin fetch for more than $8.00 per pound at some scrap yards, according to infomine.com

“That’s up about 10 percent from last year,” Zeni said.

Because of rising metal prices, metal recycling is more competitive and secretive than most people realize.

“We’re all fighting for a nickel,” said a veteran metal recycler, who would only provide his nickname “Junior.” “It’s real cutthroat.”

Junior, who has been recycling metal for more than 30 years, has mastered the craft of scrapping. He does not disclose where he gets his metal, fearing other scrappers will exploit his sources.
“If I’m getting a dime, I don’t want them to know,” Junior said.

The weathered, calloused-handed man was originally drawn to metal recycling after he spent a couple years digging for gold. To Junior, metal recycling is not simply a means to an end. It’s a treasure hunt.

“You never know what’s going to be put out,” he said.

Help with Business

Starting a home business is not tedious. In fact, there are many advantages in starting a home based business. You can enjoy the fun of working in a home atmosphere and can work at your convenient schedule. 

But running an own business requires lot of dedication and effort. You must know how to manage time for work and family. Scrapping could be one of these businesses,,,

Before starting work at home business, consider the following:

1. Whether you would have the freedom to choose when and where to work?

2. Whether the home business would allow you continue your current job and work at home?

3. Would the business require publicity or gimmicks?

4. Would the home business require heavy investment?

5. Are there any risks in starting a home business?

6. Do you have complete training and support to improve the home business?

7. Do you have acquaintance with any successful home business owner who can help as a mentor to you?

Another important consideration in starting a home business is to do what you are really passionate about. This is because of the fact that you can put greater effort without any difficulty because you really love it. 

That's why I started Scrap metal collecting, 
because it's fun even if it can be hard and dirty work at times :-)!

Changing The World With Scrap Metal Melbourne Companies

Metal is one of our precious natural resources and one day the cogs will stop turning and the earth will stop giving us metal. This is why scrap metal is so invaluable to the future of our existence. Scrap metal can prevent us from pillaging to the earth until she cracks under the pressure, it can help us reduce the negative impact of waste on our society and as an added bonus it can make us a little extra cash along the great journey of life. 

How Can Your Business Survive an Economic Recession

Your Scrap business will surely be affected during an economic recession. Fortunately, there are things you can do to keep it afloat.

Remember that the heart of every business is customer service. If you give special treatment to your customers, these people will leave feeling satisfied and always come back. This is something that your employees must understand because if they don’t, these individuals will be the first one to go since you have to cut back on your expenses.

One way of doing that is to reeducate your employees. Give them a refresher course of the products and services that you are offering. You should also motivate them because good morale always achieves positive results. Being the owner of the business, you should lead by example by rendering longer hours at work. If they see you are doing whatever it takes to  stay afloat, they will do the same because again, their jobs are on the line and they could be dismissed if things get worse. 

The objective of any business is to make money so part of surviving an economic recession will be also to lower your profit margins as scrap metal becomes scarce. By informing your customers of this move, they will be able to bring more to you at a very reasonable price. You can raise prices again when things get better since such a crisis is only temporary.

Instead of relying on people coming through your door, you can also look at other ways to promote your business. One of the most affordable ones to date is the internet so create your own website. 

Other businesses are also feeling the crunch and they are also doing their best to stay afloat. Ask around what they are doing and share the same information as well so you will have other ideas and options when the ones you have right now are not working.

We are not yet out of the woods in the recent economic recession. A lot of people are still losing their jobs and their homes, which is why it is important for you to take the steps mentioned rather than doing nothing and hoping for a miracle.
