These guys ship out compressed cubes of higher end metals, mostly aluminum that's been sorted. They have a trackmobile that sits inside the facility and is used to pull cars out when empty. They didn't ship a lot when I was there, but I'm sure the value of the cargos was enough to keep them around. I'd expect them to ship more with the demand for scrap up.
