Where to take my cracked block and get some money for it?

Metal recycling yards or something?

Anyone know anything about this?

The one scrap place I've been to had a 1000lb minimum before they would pay for Iron/steel.

I think there is a place in Minneapolis but they have a $300 limit.

Just post an ad under free on craigslist and throw it out at the curb. Someone will grab it.

So sad that I can't get anything for it! If it wasn't illegal to dump it in a lake, I bet it would make a nice fish house.
