What did you scrap?

[Recyclersteve]

Have pretty much given up on scrapping, but I do still save aluminum cans. Sold 7 lbs. for an even $4. They were supposed to give me $3.85 (55 cents/lb.), but it was near the end of the day and starting to pour rain so he gave me $4 even.

Yep I pass up steel a lot of times, but then again if you are breaking down things you will end up with some steel. I have several loads of it to get rid of around my house. If I need a few more pounds to fill up the truck most of the time the steel is still out there to get!

Was out of town in the Seattle area earlier this summer and, on a Sunday, saw an entire metal roof sitting by the street with a sign that said "Free". There was no way I could do anything. If I was at home, I'd have taken all of it. The house appeared to be about 3,000 soft. or so. Oh well...
