    timing switches and such off of washers and dryers could also be worth more as parts

    Jack pot! Congrats, now use the information on the forum to turn this into an even greater pot of money. Good things should come to people who are deserving and not expecting it. Mike.

    Grate score!! If you brake down the frig's and they have the top freezer pull the back panel of the freezer (might be aluminum or plastic) behind that panel you will find a small electric motor and an aluminum rad.

    Nice find. Just goes to show when u help someone out not expecting something good things can come of it. U could have taken the 50 she offered, and missed out on what sounds like thousands from the two businesses.
    As for the stuff, just research everything, and u will find that some things are worth. More than scrap value. Need to find a applience repair person in ur area. If they are honest, they will buy parts off u for more than scrap. What is left u can scrap. Computers, if they are old enough and still working u might get a pretty penny for them. Nothing else, should get pretty good for the boards etc, then still have the shred. I love to hear about things like this.

    Just wished it would happen to me once!!!! Seriously though, nice find.
    And good for u helping someone out stranded!!
    Good luck

    Just shows that if your a good person, you will have good karma.
