Step one, disassemble a bunch of junk
Step two, keep aluminum
Step three, recycle the rest
I can get well over a ton a year with these simple steps.
Have fun!
Edit
I am glad to see a younger fellow interested in recycling but in this biz ya gotta get out there and get it. Read more here, there are plenty of breakdowns of common items that will help you determine what items have a decent amount of Al or whatever other metal you fancy.
I'm sure there are plenty of obstacles being so young but if you really want to get it you can find a way.
Try and find a big pile of Al window frames from a house remodel.

There ain't nothing wrong with an honest days work. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool.- Old Man
Why are you melting stuff down? Have you thought about the costs associated with that? Do you have a buyer / yard that will buy ignots? Do you know that there are different alloys / grades of aluminum that pay differently? If you have a buyer for your ignots, it is doubtful that you will get anymore than sheet aluminum price.
