They all go and sell it to the dealers (they get the US$) who pack containers, smaller local yards tend to full containers and sell it to the bigger yards. Some pack containers by hand and I know of one other who shreds metal into little billets and load the container. Very efficient system. I’ve done a lot of scrap iron work, still do once it’s over 100 tonnes.
