Yesterday I went to the transfer station in South Seattle to get rid of some metal fence posts and wire. They have a section for metal recycling. There, somebody had thrown away a complete shop crane. This thing was old, made of rectangular (3" X 6" ) steel tubing. It had cast steel wheels on it. I could have lifted my jeep with it.
There's a big sign that says "Do Not Remove Anything".
I walked over to an attendant and asked if they were serious about removing usable stuff. He said that he could get fired if he took anything, and that I could get arrested.

I would love to have that thing for my new garage.
