Trying to get my bits of metal together to see what I can get at scrappy.

What's the metal old water pipes in this picture? I know the wwatse pipes are lead, but what's the 15mm type pipe?

The bath is really really heavy can hardly move it - cast iron? Are the fire grates cast iron too??

Some of the pipe looks like copper some looks like steel.

screwed pipes are steel (old gas lines)
ceiling t-bars are probably also steel
radiators steel
bath and grates cast iron
If you've any copper pipe with brass fittings attached then separate the copper, copper is worth a lot more than brass

If you only have 2 rads, best to leave them outside for the p!keys. Only worth it if you have a truck full. Cast iron - same.

£20+ for bath alone, tell the ****** to do one.

here's two examples of prices, although I don't know where you are it should give you some idea.

That first link above bought up a TROJAN WARNING on my computer so i didn't check the second one

 

[CBF]

I have no idea why it's for the maxiwaste web site, if you google scrap metal prices it's the second on the list on the first page

Trojan warning for me, too.
Some security software flag up false positives.

AVG cleared the virus from the first link
