The town where I live has started not letting you take anything from

Aye, our local (county) dump has much the same policy, only they tell you it
is for liability reasons.

Another thing they started doing recently is "sniffing" the used motor oil
coming in with a handheld gadget to see if it contains items besides used
motor oil.
