    you get stuff from the transfer station and they let you or you buy from them?? I thought about calling my transfer station to see if I can get their stuff. oh and I went on a 40 mile run this morning, picked up 5 TV's with cords, 3 metal x mas trees, and 4 boxes of x mas lights, now I hear xmas lights are great but I need to research what peeps here do with them or how they are processed.. also picked up my old 4x8 metal trailer I gave to a guy who moved away and left it on the property, im glad the owner let me take it back.. ill post pics in a few.

    They won't let take the larger stuff from my local transfer. I wanted a riding mower one time for parts for mine and was told no. I have been know to throw a thing or two in the back of my truck when dropping off trash. Got a nice tank sand blaster one day.

    ALSO, keep an eye out between now and Super Bowl Sunday for TVs. Right after the first of the month especially. Many of these TVs work, people just wanted a bigger/better TV. Review those old threads on TVs!
