Here is Houston, you hand over you drivers license each time you get on the scale. They take a picture of it, enter your data, and send you on your way. On the way out, they issue you an ATM type card and you go to the machine to have your money dispensed. On non-ferrous, it is handled the same way but on a smaller scale. They are taking pictures of you, your scrap, and you vehicle as well as plate. None of the yards within the city limits will accept HVAC equipment unless you have an air conditioning license. Stupid rule as I am a commercial roofer and we are regularly removing obsolete units or previously vandalized ones. I did a warehouse job several years ago and there were 80 abandoned package units. We removed them all but scrapping them was a pain as it was a dozen loads and I had to drag my HVAC friend along and pay him for his time.
