I'm just going to toss them into the recycle bin that I have to put out at
the curb and let the trash company sort out what they want to do. It's not
worth my effort to go to the recycling center ...

I have read online somewhere that any bit of scrape metal has some
value at the scape yard. thanks Jamie

That's too bad. Because they will probably just send it to a landfill,
they probably aren't set up to recycle iron. Whereas if it goes to a
scrap yard, it will get recycle.

According to reports, our curbside recycle is pretty good. I have to put
recyclable stuff, newspapers, plactics, bottles, etc., into a separate can
from my regular trash. We're told that the can gets sorted somewhere and the
various materials are separated into piles where they do the most good.

Assuming what They say and what They do is the same, my rotors should find
their way to a good home. I'll be out a few bucks, but I won't have to buy
gas to drive across town to the recycle center.
