Where to dispose of scrap metal

Hello all,I am scratch building a 650b, using as much salvageable material from a wrecked 601HD that I acquired.

Where do you guys dispose/recycle these pieces?

If you were closer I could help you out.  I have the 601xl plans with serial number and the

wing skeletons (one with the mods done) plus the ailerons, rudder, firewall and misc other pieces including some wing skin.  It’s all free for someone who takes it all and comes and

gets it.  I won’t ship the stuff - live in Eastern Kansas so doubt it’s worth the trip.
