Recycling aluminum rims - Where?

[rocknxj]

Anybody near the Rocklin/Roseville area know of a recycling yard that will pay for aluminum rims? I've got three that I'll sell for scrap (instead of cluttering the garage).

And by the way, if anyone wants one perfect condition stock rim from a '99, let me know.

I go to Rio Linda on Elkhorn and 28th, there are 2 that will do it right there. I use the one with the big bullseye on the roof, you can't miss it as your driving down Elkhorn. Just make sure you bring an ID with you. I'm sure there are more a little closer but these are all I know of in Sac. Hope that helps.

I just took mine to my local transfer station (aka the dump). I was surprised how little money I got for 5 of my aluminum rims....

There are two past 26th Street that I go to. They seem to pay fairly with current values.

Thanks, guys. Boatwrench has first dibs on my rims. If that does not work out, I'll get rid of them for scrap at that yard.

Yeah you might get around 30 bucks for the set.I wish they paid the same as aluminum cans at $ 1.55 a pound but unfortunatly they consider it "dirty" aluminum.

I was quoted .65/lb. At 80 lbs for the full set, that's about 50 bucks, which is approximately 8.33 crispy chicken combo meals at Jack in the Box.

Well that's good then, I took some mustang rims there a few years ago and only got $35. The price has jumped a lot since then I forgot about that.
