Disposal of live ammo

[kt]

I wanted to run this by you folks. here is the scoop, last year after a hurricane came up the coast the basement got about an inch and a half of water, fast forward past the clean up to about a month ago i was cleaning the basement so it can be finished well it so happens one of the rubbermaid totes that i kept about 75 dove loads in had a crack and took some water, the better part of all three boxes i found with rusty brass. well especially after my flaming empty thread here, i am in no way firing these shells. but i want them gone, how would you go about that, thought about soaking them in water, i cant see just putting 'em out for the garbage man.
