I've got a roll of 3003 aluminum that has some "cosmetic imperfections" I'm looking to get rid of.
The roll is 48" wide. Material is 3003 aluminum mill finish. Thickness is 0.040". The roll is measured to weigh around 3000#. Calculators say there's about 1400' of material in the roll.
Some moisture got into it and I had to put it away. Obviously it isn't rust, but I've heard it described as white rust, or hazing, or clouding. This was 2-3 years ago. I'm tired of looking at it, and since aluminum price is up, I'm looking to dump it. My scrap buyers give me 35 cents / lb for the drops of this stuff. One of them said he would give me a little more since it was a continuous roll.
Does anyone out there know someone who might really be interested specifically for sheet aluminum? I paid $2.50/lb for the roll I got in January. Do you think I could get a dollar / pound for this stuff? I know freight might be an issue, but for a few thousand pounds I thought it might be worth it.
