The price of mercury changes on a daily basis in the same way that other commodities do, so to check out the current price for it, have a look at this site: www.metalprices.com/FreeSite/metals/hg/hg.asp Mercury is sold in flasks of 76 lbs, so the price that you see will be for this quantity, though you must be aware that industrial grade mercury is not as valuable, and if you only have a small amount to sell, the price that you get will be reflected by this.

There are some important things that anyone thinking about getting rid of some mercury should know. First of all, it is not a waste product and there are many people who want it, so you should always be able to find a buyer for it, even if it is a specialist scrap dealer. They will pay you for you it, not the other way round where you have to pay them to take it off your hands.

Secondly, it is incredibly toxic so you should never try and dispose of it by putting it down the toilet or the sink, or even in the dustbin; mercury is indestructible and will not degrade or dissolve, and will poison anything that comes into contact with it.

If you do sell your mercury, make certain (as much as you can) that the person who is buying it from you is aware of the potential dangers and that they are going to use it responsibly.

The usual people who are interested in having some mercury are those who study sciences so you may be able to offer it to the science departments of colleges or universities. Schools in the UK are banned from having mercury on the premises, even in thermometers and barometers because of the risks, so there is no point approaching any of those.
