If I pick scrap from my workplace--from the dumpster or from the shop, should I give employer a cut?



My employer's shop is a mess and a bunch of stuff should be either scrapped or thrown out. I want to submit a bid to help organize and de-junk it, including paying employer a cut from the earnings at scrap yard.

I'd appreciate any wisdom if any of you are willing to share your opinions!
Thanks,
