    With different prices everywhere a fridge I just turned in (300lbs) netted $22.00 with copper/etc removed. so that was just for the fridge weight on that one. I got about $30.00 for a smaller sized riding mower last week. Most of your other stuff listed is going to be mostly steel anyways and added up in a big pile so cant guess on that stuff separately. Cast grill tops - depending on size I've gotten at least $3.00 each piece up to over 5.00 each piece. And you do have to remove any steel from those tops and bottoms but I never degrease them or any kind of cleaning like that. Same with the sizes of the aluminum/copper radiators from AC units - couple bucks on up and thats just those pieces from one not counting any copper tubing/wiring/steel left over.

    Are you saying that the scrap yards take appliances for free? You don't get money for them?? If so you need to pick up as many as possible and break them all the way down so it is no longer an appliance! If the dump charges $10.00 for them you could pick these up all day from people who don't want to pay to dispose them...
