Call your local junkyard after determining what type of scrap steel you have to see what their current scrap steel prices are. They should be able to give you a rough estimate of what you should receive. If you are unable to determine the type of steel that you have, they will sort it for you. However, they are generally nicer if you have it pre-sorted before arriving.
