I know a guy, but he is up here in Smithers and shipping would kill you.

One of our dealers at my old job was

Welcome to Makin Metals

They may have a location in Kamloops, or maybe could transport to you.

Williams lake scrap metal buy and tear down lots of mills and stuff like that.
They usually have a BIG stock of all types of steel at used prices.
Lots of it looks brand new.
It depends on what you want.
I buy big gate posts from them for approx. a quarter of what a fence outfit would charge me.
They also own BJ Trucking and haul all over Canada so probaly would deliver .
Its hard to get much of a answer out of them on the phone you should probably just go look .
Pick out what you want and say "how much"?
talk to Brent.

Thanks Ken....Leads like this rock.

The place here i dealt with is super slow to get my orders filled, and outrageously expensive to.
Lost my last order completely.

So I want to find a new place to deal with.
I buy a fair amount over the course of a year, and need a reliable place, and decent pricing.

A family friend used to buy steel by the truckload and get it straight from AJ Forsyth, but no he gets it from Mark because his re-selling price is cheaper then what AJ Forsyth will sell direct.
