So I just collect all my old strings, tuning pins, etc. in a bin and every few stringing jobs take a run to the Berkeley recycling facility and dump it all in their Metals bin. You might want to check around some of the Peninsula towns and see if one of them has a recycling drop-off that takes metals for recycling. In Berkeley you don't need to be a resident to use the drop off - but that's a bit too far for you to haul your old bass strings...
