Just got back from Thanksgiving holiday and saw the conversation on scrapyards, wanted to add my two cents. The scrap/recycle yard here in Boise used to have a good salvage section but recently pared it down to nothing. Last time I was in there one of the guys said it was due to some inventory count. Got a different explanation at the counter. Went home and wrote a letter to them. The manager actually called me back. Said they had too much trouble with people crawling on the "pile," blamed it on legal issues. He said they would try to reinstate the salvage yard but haven't seen it yet. Couple weeks later I'm in Idaho Falls. That yard also closed their salvage section. Same explanation: "legal issues." Watched them take in a '36 Chev farm truck, excellent body. What a shame. Personally I think it is greed. Get it in and ship it to China as fast as you can. Too much effort to separate.
