Local Market Note

Winnipeg sees large volumes of agricultural equipment scrap — combine harvester components, cast iron, carbon steel, and aluminum bins. Spring is the busiest time as farmers decommission old equipment. Yards here are accustomed to large ferrous loads. Non-ferrous metals travel further to final processors, so rates may be slightly behind coastal cities.
