#2 Copper market context — Idaho

Local supply of #2 Copper in Idaho comes through yards that serve agriculture, forestry, technology, and food processing. Wider regional patterns matter too: 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. Within the state, Boise has the largest concentration of yards taking #2 Copper. 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 the yard before driving over is the simplest way to confirm the day's rate and that they want the grade you have on hand.
