probably a couple hundred. Have you considered eBay? If it's in good shape you could get more. Someone might want to refinish it and use as it was intended. Anyhow, just looking at them on eBay should give you some idea of what they are going for.
Good luck

Cast Iron Bath Scrap Value

Scrap value isn't much for cast iron. If it's just a plain bath it's probably not worth much. But if it's a bath with a roll edge top and feet and in good condition you could probably get a good price selling it as a bath. I got £300 for one I sold a couple of years ago.

The price you'll get for scrap metal is really good at the mo. Not sure about a bath tub but a car would probably get you £50. Just to give you a rough idea.

Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!! definately don't give it away to the rag n bone chap. there is a huge demand for cast iron baths now. You can advertise it on ebay and i could guarnantee that someone would snap your hand off for it. Alternatively you could sell it for scrap but I would get advice first on what you could expect to get for it cos scrap metal dealers are very good at their trade and tend to say things like - " I'll give you a fiver for it and get it off your hands for you" which of course is exactly what you want to hear cos these baths are very heavy and awkward to shift. Definately look closesly into this one and don't leave it hanging around outside your home because as heavy as it is you may find that it disappears in the middle of the night. Good Luck

About 1/25 of the gas you used driving to the scrap yard.
My old boss was insane when it came to scrapping and reusing stuff. We busted up the tubs and threw them out. If you knew him that would be proof enough of how little they're worth. Do scrap yards even take them?

About £2, cast iron has very little value. Some scrap dealers won't even take it.

Most scrap metals (iron, steel, cast iron, etc.) sell for about a dollar per hundred pounds.
You can call any scrap yard and they will quote you their current going rates for any metal.

A few quid at most, generally not worth the bother. If it's an old/unusual shape, or has 'ball and claw' feet, it may be worth more if taken to a reclamation yard, but they will still not pay you much for it (often the feet alone are what they are after).
