What do you do with your junk?

I could understand why some of you recycle only brass and copper; it's those that pay the most (anyway here in WA that's the case).

But I don't often find scrap copper or brass, but instead a copious amount of aluminium scrap so I'd probably make way more in scrapping aluminium than copper and brass combined.

I save my pull tabs in a gallon size bucket. I intend to count them when I find a gold item so that I can see what my "tab to gold" ratio is.

Thanks for everyone's replies, I will definitely be sorting my trash, I guess I do it to not only recycle but at least I'll get some reward for digging up rubbish.

Lead I most commonly find in the form of sinkers and if my box gets full (which it will be very soon), I'll be selling them individually, you'd get more $ from them if you sold them separately.

Just one last question to dirtykneese and groundhog, does it matter if the iron/steel is badly rusted? Do they still take it or do they expect you to remove it (ie. only clean steel)
