... you do realize "aluminum breakage" doesn't actually mean broken aluminum...right? It means "dirty" or "irony" aluminum, aluminum with foreign attachments. My yard would buy it as breakage since it's already drained and partially dismantled. You might want to call your yard before you start smashing things with a sledge...
"Aluminum Breakage:Aluminum recyclables with greater than 8% of foreign attachments but less than 40%. Aluminum recoveries of a minimum of 50% - 60% must be achievable. Materials with lower recovery rates will be graded as sheet iron"
