Some towns have transfer stations or swap shops. You would have to live in that town to use it.

this used to allowed all the time but towns have caught on to how to leverage the revenue stream. it doesnt pay much but properly separating the scrap helps then recoup some operating costs. not all of it can be resold but they have to have an all or nothing is ok rule to keep the scrappers from raiding their piles.

brunswick used to have a free for the taking table but that went away when they closed grahm road landfill.

Saco has a “swap tent”. It’s just to the right as you drive in.

Also, when dropping things the construction/wood pile that aren’t quite swap material, but not complete trash, they tell you to put it on the ground in front of the pile in case someone does want it. I got a beat up solid wood kitchen island that I repaired and refinished from there.
