I disassembled two 2000Amp service disconnects. I have a large amount of plated buss bar of all shapes and sizes. Other than scrap metal recovery, anyone know of companies who might buy this type of material??

In the US, it's not likely switchgear manufacturers are into reusing/"recycling" busbar stock.

Scrap dealers in some areas are reluctant to buy material that they may consider "stolen." They may, as a personal favor, just his once, offer to unload it for a very small fraction of copper spot price.

What about constructing a nice objet d'art for the corporate-HQ foyer?
 
I used to have a length of it bent into a "Z" shape that made a pretty neat book stand. The "Z" was on it's side and the books leaned to one side. It got lost in a move.
If you have a bender you can make some cool nerd toys.
