b&n scrap metals and cores

We are a couple young guys trying to support our family's we go around to our contracts and buy scrap metals and scrap auto parts and sell them to rebuilders since we registered our company in 1999 we have seen a real jump in the catalytic converters market so we are out on the road buying lots of cats weekly than selling them at the each month roughly 1000 to 1500 cats monthly so we would really like to cut out the middle man (core place) and go right to the source that buys and extracts the platium and porclin themselves and get paid top dollar
