    sorry bro- i think thats the wrong attitude to have.

    they are your neighbours- when u are in some problem one day, u will turn to them & u wont appreciate it if they turn their backs on you for not being a decent neighbour to them.

    your scrap can become a breeding ground for rats etc if u leave it for too long and it will be an eyesore- even if your front looks neat, u surely cant expect your neighbours to only look out their front windows & ignore what the view from their back windows looks like.

    and most importantly: no matter how much scrap there is out there to be picked up, the scrap you ALREADY HAVE is useless unless u strip it & take it to the yard & get paid.

    the ONLY time u can just pile up scrap is if you live out in a rural area or on a farm.

    Yep you right I just have to clean all this mess but as scrappers we keep bringing more and the cycle continues. I guess I just have to find a better way to keep my yard clean. Thanks for the advise.
