First cable looks like Ethernet wire. Usually 8 wires, copper. I put it in with ICW
Second picture is video connection from computer to monitor. Cut the ends, put it in ICW
Third pic... RCA connector and wire Cut the ends off and put it in ICW
Four... Another monitor connector ends off ICW
Five and six... Thirty amp appliance cord. Used for older dryers and stoves. The fifty amp connector has an "L" shaped neutral post. ICW

You can strip it and probably get more for the clean copper, but I draw the line at the $hit you have to work at like a freak to get a negligible gain. My yard gives $1/#ICW so it all goes into the bin and taken in as bulk.

oh thanks for the info but will the yard buy the connector ends? so what wires do you strip?
