What to salvage from a trash compactor

I purchased two trash compactors:

They are both "4 yard heavy duty" models with 20HP hydraulic units. Model SC4000HD.



Some more details are in the catalog here

They are both well working trash compactors. Nevertheless, I do not want to try to market them, as they are too big for me to move around and store. They each weigh 7,700 lbs, plus the canopies made from 1/8" sheet metal.



Here's what I want to salvage from them:


1) Hydraulic units with control boxes
2) Hydraulic rams, two per compactor

Is there anything else, possibly, that I am missing?

Cut the canopies for sheet stock, the turn buckles are handy if you haul anything. Maybe modify one to bale metal scrap?

Thanks.

I do not think that the kind of scrap that I deal with, can be baled. Those are for cardboard.
