OT- Aluminum Recycling in Atlanta

[carnut169]

I know this is a bit off topic, but I have access to 100's of BMW alloy (aluminum, I think) wheels. They have all had the valve cores drilled out so they are useless as wheels but might have value as scrap metal...
Any ideas as to where to go/ who to call? Is it worth my time?
Thanks!

Sean- there is a place off buford hwy, close to Jimmy Carter Blvd that buys scrap aluminum. I can't remember the name or exact street name but: From 85, exit on Jimmy carter to left on Buford hwy, go a couple of miles until you see a Dairy Queen on the left and a road directly across from it---take that road and cross the railroad tracks., look to the left and see the scrap yard. My A/C distributors fork-lift workers bring old aluminum a/c coils there all the time for cash on the spot. I have no idea how much they give, but these guys are in a hurry to get my junk when i go up there!

Thanks Doug. I guess I'll take them 1 wheel and see what happens.

Sometime back my wife bent a wheel hitting a curb with her beemer. I put the bent wheel in our curbside recycling along with all the beer and soda cans. That doesn't work.
