Anything I leave out on trash day that is reusable or metal gets picked up in under an hour.
    Anybody in around my area needing a bunch of Aluminum scrap let me know (have a bunch of window screens from before we got all the windows replaced and some aluminum gutters that need gone).
    Why, aren't you a scrapper? If not, your lost.

    I dabbled in ewaste from time to time cleaning out the junk from lots I purchased or cleaned out from other collectors. Mostly I find it interesting and I run into scrappers all the time in my computer collecting hobby. Too much competition to make much money out of it around here anyway.
