    Are they sure 'nuff regular size 5 gal. buckets and are they level full? Sure makes for a tempting road trip from Verginny.

    From my experience, a full 5 gallon bucket of ww will weight approx 100 pounds.
    If full, that’s about 35 cents/pound unsmelted.
    If I was close, I go buy them.
    But alas I’m not!
    Remember you’re talking 1/2 ton, so don’t take off in a subcompact to get them! Might cost you a tranny! Hehe

    Have they been sorted or are they mixed lead/iron/zinc?
