Waz 4,262 Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Got a trailer load, could do with weighing in to tidy up a corner, plus a sack of old copper stripped out from a house. When you say about batteries, include golf cart batteries in that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When you say about batteries, include golf cart batteries in that? Yes golf cart batteries will weigh in, as will all lead acid battery's, make sure you sort your copper out and seperate all the brass fittings and seperate any soldered joints and keep them seperate brass or it will be classed as braziers copper and the soldered joints need to go in a senate pile for dirty copper 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
