Cast Iron Pipe and Radiators

Cast Iron Pipe and Radiators

Cast iron pipes and radiators were used for home heating and are commonly found in older homes. If you are giving your house an upgrade, you can turn that old radiator into cash. Instead of putting them in a landfill, bring them to a scrapyard. Be aware that they can be very heavy – weighing anywhere from 150-500 lbs each. Moving them alone is not advisable.
