How do you find scrap buyers who will collect after a disaster?
Short answer: Expect high demand and slow response times in the days after severe weather, so ask several buyers, give them a clear description, photos, an estimate of weight and your location and access, be flexible on timing and consider combining your debris with neighbours' to make a worthwhile pickup, because a bigger, easier load is likely to be collected sooner.
