Do you want money for it or just wanna get rid of it?
You can take automotive junk to Pick A Part. They have a dumpster where they let you leave things. But they don't pay you.

I used to get about $100/ton but last time I loaded my truck with about 3k# I showed up at the yard and got turned away. Yards are not buying scrap right now. So I had to bring it all home and Save it.
If you don't want anything for it then your welcome to add to my pile. but I'l about 45min south of you.

My scrap pile used to be about the size of... well, lets put it this way, it took me about 4 loads in my longbed dodge ram to haul it away and at about 2k-3k #'s each time. In fact, one time I did my truck and trailer. Yes, I have to room.

If the wheels are aluminum, take them to a recycling center. It's about 10 bucks a wheel.
