Cash for recycling

Hear me out on this. What if you're able to sell the scrap from the crusher at QM?
I'm thinking like, 5 credits per pile or something. Nothing ridiculous, but enough to get a bit of money.

You can sell it to the trader on the salvage ship but it's kinda pointless seeing as you have to sell it indiviually and it's like 5 credits, if the merchants on the debris field could show up as cargo traders it would make more sense to sell it that way.

That's another round about way of doing the same thing I'm saying, so I'm fine with that as long as it's super duper easy as hitting a button on a chute

Like, there should be a thing right next to where the scrap dumps where you sell it, so there is no waiting around for a merchant or hauling it to another location.

I personally prefer my idea because it's more immediate, doesn't require being in a particular place, and the payouts would be about the same (1-10 credits depending on the item)

*grabs trash cart*
*loads everything into it*
*literally everything*
*dumps*
*becomes a billionaire*

This wouldn't really shouldn't occur, since the payout would be very small per item. Most things could probably be sold through QM for more than you'd get this way.
If you are worried about it you could whitelist it so only certain items are considered trash (cans and bottles, food, shards of glass) but like I said, the effort to throw everything you can think of down a chute probably wouldn't be worth it
