I scrap because I like the extra pocket change! But actually, and more importantly, b/c of the environment. I find myself spending A LOT of time at dumpsters rearranging garbage. It is amazing to me how many people don't recycle in today's world. And it's very frustrating how much garbage I find in the recycle bins. So, I try to move as much of the big stuff as I can...cardboard boxes only take a sec to break down and toss in the recycle bins. I consider this as doing my part. I do what I can when I can. And then I grab the cans! And I haul my scrappy ass down to the local recycler and cash in!
