I know it's not worth it for me now, the last few times I have been at the yard in recent months, there are less and less people - because of dropping metal prices, and I do pass the same yards frequently. It's very slow/vacant besides plumbers and construction companies and what not at the small scales with copper, tow companies at the large scales with vehicles.
Only reason I had what I had the other day is because the technology manufacturing company I work for, they were throwing some things out that were mostly non-ferrous. I am not even going to think about picking anything up from anyone right now even if a "regular" contacts me. There were some metal file cabinets curbside that finally got picked up after sitting for weeks in my neighborhood I saw everyday on my commute - and the area is saturated with "scrappers"/former "scrappers" - actual full time ones. Not sure if a scrapper or the trash people finally got them - or maybe someone needed to use them as file cabinets and saw them etc...
