#1 Copper market context — Oregon

Oregon sees #1 Copper flow through yards tied to technology hardware, forestry, and food processing. On a regional level, West Coast ports and the regional mill base feed downstream demand from construction and electrical work, though longer shipping legs to inland mills can show up in posted yard rates. The largest pocket of yards taking #1 Copper sits in Portland. 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.
