I cant imagine a business just giving away "large amounts" of metal on a regular basis, when they can just sell to some1 else.
    I already have three businesses where I have an arrangement to keep the area clean without paying for metal. One is an auto body shop, another is a general repair shop and the third is a trucking co that does his own maintenance/repairs. I go pickup just before it snows OR every week during winter and every other week during other months. The difference is that as a "buyer", you'll be on your schedule or maybe not at all. As a "Service Provider", I go on their schedule.

    And, yes, if I'm providing a service, I'll stop paying.

    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
