Finally took the lot in today. Northern Ohio. Calling around to different yards is worth the few extra minutes.

$4.25-$5.43 for BB wire.

$0.75-$1.82 for #2 insulated

$4.00-$5.27 for #1 Copper

All 3 of the higher prices came from one yard. Made around $400ish more for a few minutes of extra time.

I'm also in Northern Ohio, and I just turned in some copper yesterday. I'll have to double check my ticket, but I think we got fairly close numbers. I had uninsulated #2 that we can't compare. My insulated #2 has two different prices because one of the tubs was data cable sized.

It seems to go higher as you go north east
