This morning I noticed our garbage truck stopped at our curb with one of the guys on a phone. I didn't think much of it. When I leashed my dog for our morning walk, one of the guys hollered at me, "you can't put live ammunition in the trash!" They apparently heard some heavy metal when they dumped my can and started pilfering through my garbage. What they found were some cases where I had over adjusted seating depth when setting up my press. I explained to the uninitiated what it was, showed him there was no primer and tried to explain that it was not live ammo. He then asked me about the fist full of spent primers they found. Turns out they were on the phone with their supervisor who had told them that I couldn't put reloading components in the trash.
Fine. Now I can't just chunk the junk. So, what is the proper disposal method for spent primers, split brass, etc?
