Good for you...stay honest and you can't lose. Reminds me of a wellknown local, less than respected scrapper who told me that he soaks copper wire in water before he sells it to increase the weight. I wasn't aware that metal would absorb water and haven't tried it. Most everything else he says is wrong or intentionally misleading so I won't take his word on this one either.
On the other hand, as I load with a skidsteer, I often include grass, dirt and wood and my local yard just overlooks it.....the claw operator said they "need fill dirt" for their low spots anyhow. LOL
An elderly friend of mine said he once sold 3,000 aluminum cans and he actually went to the bother of dumping all the cigarette butts and any dirt out of each and every one of them first. I complimented him on his honesty.
