I've been paying anywhere from 10 cents to 40 cents a lb. for mixed wheel weights in southern Indiana. Lead yield has been running 30 to 35%.What would you guys say average would be per pound of WW in a bucket from the tire man? I have a line on some and we are going to try to make a deal, but I don't want to overpay, figure the one bucket I picked up today had roughly 100-125 pounds in it. Saw a few zinc. it was about 1" from the top of being running out of the bucket.
I may try to buy it all and just pay him for what it cleans out in ingots.
