How do you determine the price of salvaged steel?

ScrapRegister.com provides detailed prices lists for salvage steel and other forms of salvage metal in the United States, China, Japan and India. The websites of many local scrap metal businesses, such as RockawayRecycling.com and EarthworksRecycling.com, also indicate prices in the areas they serve.

Most of these sites update their prices on a daily basis due to the fluctuation of the salvage market prices. The price for salvage metals can vary significantly by region as determined by the supply and demand in that area. Additionally, scrap metal businesses, even within the same region, may have a small amount of variance in price from one another. However, the prices generally remain fairly similar.
