scrap

Scrap consists of recyclable materials left over from product manufacturing and consumption, such as parts of vehicles, building supplies, and surplus materials. Unlike waste, scrap has monetary value, especially recovered metals, and non-metallic materials are also recovered for recycling.

    Any trade places that buy old boilers?

    Is there anywhere to sell old boilers that are removed from customers' houses? Presumably these places that sell recon parts have to break old boilers down for new material? I'm in the Luton area.
