You've got to let go of the stuff

I'm cleaning out my parents house, and everywhere I turn, I can't decide what to keep, what to toss etc. There is so much (they lived in the same house for 55 years)

The problem is - what happens when you have a cabinet 5 ft by 4ft x 4ft FULL of brass and copper pipe fittings? I took a bucket full of mixed fittings home (and will probably take another bucket - but of course I don't want to just throw them away - I'd LOVE to find a plumber to come over and give me say, 10-20% above scrap for them, and TAKE them (brand new 2" bronze gate valves aren't cheap) I have a full set of pipe dies, and a pipe bench. I really don't have the room for them, and might need them once a decade. I have about 10-15 cubig feet of metal electrical boxes (Gem, Quad, Handy, extentions, EMT and BX fittings etc)

BTW, if any of you are in the NYC area and are interested in buying the "stuff" a HVAC mechanic accumulates over 50 years or so in the trade - filter driers, tanks of freon, fittings, wire, etc etc etc, PLEASE email me
