Common Items Around Your Home to Sell as Scrap Metal
Selling scrap metal is a great way to earn extra money. When you hear about selling scrap metal you probably think of junk, or things that are no longer in use. However, if you need cash fast, you may be surprised at how much scrap metal you may be able to find around your home that you can sell.
Here are some places you can look to find scrap metal around your home.
In the Kitchen
It's probably no surprise that there are a lot of opportunities for selling scrap metal in your kitchen. If you have an old iron skillet, or a stainless steel or copper pan that you haven't used in a while you may want to consider selling it for scrap metal to earn some money.
For example, that old iron pot that your grandmother gave you, that no one has used for years could be a source of money for you if you sell it as scrap metal.
Additionally, If your family regularly drinks from drink cans or you eat canned goods, you can sell the cans as scrap metal as well. These cans are made from aluminium and can be recycled.
Your Living Room
Have you replaced your television recently? Want to get rid of that old radio? Then you have scrap metal on hand that you can sell. Inside the TV or radio, you are likely to find copper. You may find a scrap metal yard that will do a scrap metal pickup for the entire television or radio from you, so you won't have to pull it down to extract the copper.
Whether you sell the whole thing or the copper inside, you will get some cash. You can also do this if you have recently changed your HVAC unit and even your window sidings. Many scrap metal yards also do auto scrap, so if you have an old car you can sell it for scrap metal as well. The opportunities to sell scrap metal are everywhere.
