Etiquette for metal detecting can be defined as a form of ethical behavior regarding metal detectorist responsibility, the actions of detectorist in their dealings with each other, the use of land, abiding by the law, practicing correct and acceptable social behavior in the field and by adhering to the Metal Detecting Code of Ethics.

These guidelines will ensure that you don’t do any damage or give metal detectorists a bad name.

As a good first rule, do no harm.

This applies to life as a whole, but you need to be careful of it here, since when you metal detect you can end up digging quite a few holes. Fill them in. No exceptions.

Be conscientious about where you dig and make sure you leave everything looking about the same way you found it.

If you get permission to dig on private land and in the process you dig two hundred holes, none of which you fill in, that is a surefire way of never being allowed back on that land. And the landowner will probably never let any metal detectorist on their property again because of those damages.

You’re bound to find more junk than treasure. So what to do with all the rusty nails or bolts or soda cans?

It’s bad form to leave them just lying there in the dirt, so pick up and pack out any trash you may find. If nothing else, you will make the area you’re searching a cleaner, safer place for everybody.

Also, cleaning an area up will absolutely help the reputation of metal detectorists like you in that area, so be considerate and do what you can to pick up trash and improve the area.
