These following sentences might be grammatical, maybe not but are they natural? Could you help make them natural?

2) It's a question of etiquette. I grew up having to say hello to everyone that comes into the elevator. I know lots of people don't say anything.
3) We have a ladder, we might as well put it to use/make use of it instead of using a chair.
4) The main reason for which we are making this trip I forgot at home. I was supposed to deliver papers that I forgot at home.
5) It'll cost me more in notary fees to buy this strip of land than the price of the land itself.
6) If we earn a small income, we pay little/fewer taxes.
