#2 Copper market context — Maryland

Yards in Maryland that buy #2 Copper draw from the local mix of biotechnology, defense, federal services, and ports and shipping. 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 Baltimore. 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. A quick call ahead confirms both the day's posted rate and whether the yard wants the specific grade you are bringing.
