#2 Copper Tubing is also bought by scrap yards for recycling. As the name suggests, this copper is sold at lower prices because it is acceptable to have other metals included, such as brass or tin fittings. It is also ok if there is some coating or soldering left, etc.
Contact the Greener Recycling scrap yard located near you and find out the current payment amount for both #1 and #2 copper tubing and get assistance with your scrap recycling.
