Okay, thanks for clarifying.  You record this income in the same place as the 1099-K, but not on 1099-K form.  

Go to Federal Taxes>>Wages & Income>>Self-employment income (1099-MISC, etc.) and expenses.  From here, either create or edit your ''SCRAPPING" business.  You can add cash received as a line item under ''Additional Income". 

I attached a screenshot so you can see what it looks like in TurboTax.
