#1 Copper market context — Arkansas

Local supply of #1 Copper in Arkansas comes through yards that serve food processing, paper and forestry, and steel. On a regional level, Southeast steel and aluminum mills, plus Gulf and Atlantic ports, give yards short shipping legs to downstream buyers of electrical wiring and plumbing. Most of the state's posted-rate activity for #1 Copper clusters in and around Little Rock. End-use demand for electrical wiring and plumbing sets the floor; what each yard pays on top of that depends on its volume and shipping setup. Calling ahead to confirm the rate and that the yard is buying the grade you have is always worth the minute it takes.
