Most people don't have a problem with you taking the stuff as long as you don't make a mess or too much noise.

That is key.
Just today, I drove by a major mountain of trash just a block away from my residence. I had the wife stop and I found a few old reel to reel tapes and the an intact 16mm Bell & Howell film projector complete with case and even the machine oil it needs. I have no idea what I am going to do with it, but I grabbed one of the home movies also being tossed in order to test it.
I went back and one of the workers was tossing more out. He told me they were cleaning out an attic and for me to help myself. I then found a Sony reel to reel which I am now cleaning up. But I made sure that I did not knock over piles and let papers go blowing in the wind. Gotta keep the neighborhood nice.
