#2 Copper market context — Maine
The Maine market for #2 Copper is shaped by the state's economic mix of forestry and paper, fishing, and shipbuilding. On a regional level, the dense Northeast corridor of mills, refiners, and ports keeps downstream demand close, which usually keeps yard pay tighter to the spot benchmark. The largest pocket of yards taking #2 Copper sits in Auburn. 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.
