#2 Copper market context — Montana

Yards in Montana that buy #2 Copper draw from the local mix of agriculture, mining, and forestry. 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. The largest pocket of yards taking #2 Copper sits in Billings. Posted rates inside the state move with end-use demand for electrical wiring and plumbing, and yard-to-yard spreads reflect each yard's volume and where it ships its sorted material. Calling ahead to confirm the rate and that the yard is buying the grade you have is always worth the minute it takes.
