hello from Maine with questions

I am a 1 year newbie at basic metal drop off at yard and leave and 1 month newbie at hey I can tear down of actual stuff myself and get more...lol . I hear there are some maine scrappers in here. I have had a environmental business for while, I have started scraping more proactively, instead of reactive when customer had some metal I removed as secondary benefit to the main reason I was in their house for another reason. So now I am looking for best thread to get me started. I love pics of what items are best to most often free in Maine and what items are gold, silver, alum, copper etc. I look forward to learning from you all. I just had my first test at getting 2 metal yards to bid against the other. Bigger cleaner one won. The shady old school one didn't care enough to even attempt to bid. Thoughts? Feedback.
I bought my first set of specialized small tools for computers, tvs etc. I am not to up on what is worth listing on ebay and what is actually selling on ebay. I got more involved thanks to Mike the scrapper in NJ on youtube. He is the first person I found who weighted it out for me, and put a price list, even if its not exact, its ball park, that helps a lot.
I am trying to get networks of people who come across metal/ewaste who don't care or have time to recycle. Where is a good place to start for a shy guy who hates rejection
also, any good folks in central maine who take out freon for free?
Thanks

Sirscrapalot - Moose do not like hugs. They look like they do, but they don't.
