I just happen to have this 32" torsion spring with a 2" i.d. left over from
an obvious home repair. I placed it in the garbage, at first, but I
retrieved it--in case it may be valuable! ; )

You don't recycle where you live?

I recycle where I live, but I've never lived anywhere that the
recycling pickup/dropoff would take steel other than food cans.

My locality takes any scrap metal that fits in the recycling bin.

We just recycled the metal parts of a disassembled lawnmower the other
day.
