What I've learned to do is put the screws into butter tubs as I take a section apart, and then stack another butter tub in that one with the screws from the next section. That way I don't get the screws mixed up and I know what order they go in. I work from the top butter tub putting those screws in first and then working my way to the bottom one. That way you shouldn't have any left over screws. At least theoretically anyway.

When you take it apart, all is fine, each screw seems willing to be removed (sometimes with a bit of force)... but when you put it back together, you ALWAYS have one screw left over, and yet all the screw holes are filled? I have had that happen so many times, one of my laptops has a section in my "leftover screws" box that has about 12, and that's from a single laptop, yet it always goes back together just fine, and all the screw holes are filled still...
