Your best bet would be to connect with someone who does clean-outs for real estate companies or the State. They'll go in and give a bid (price) to clear everything out of a house or property. Now this is where you come in. The winning contractor calls you to take all metal stuff. This way, he saves on disposal fees. I've gotten several this way and have never paid a dime for any of it. Two were for a contractor for the State who was cleaning out the properties of a nursing home commitments. There was no picking over stuff and saying "Well, you can't have this or that". If I wanted it, it went on the trailer. Otherwise, it went in the dumpster. I parked the trailer between the house/garage and the dumpster so the workers (all his - I didn't carry anything) would rather throw it on the trailer than haul it to the dumpster.
