    Smile A great recycle day.

    Pretty good turnout if I do say so myself. :)



    Sorry, was pretty busy. Only had time to snag these 5 pictures.

    I'm assuming this was a recycle day that you advertised and the community came in droves to put stuff in your gaylords?

    CRTs were taken for $5 a piece?

    That's a very good recycle day indeed!

    That's awesome!

    Very good turnout.

    I don't want to keep badgering you with questions but I will anyways...

    How many years have you been running this program? Is it annual or semi-annual?

    Did you do better this go around than you did last year?

    Are you the one going all the way down to gold (r2 or e-steward) or do you process and ship?

    Thanks for sharing - I'm hoping in the future I can be running similar programs myself.

    man I hope you can just palletize and ship out those TV's...I know when I do the ones in my area, I tend not to take TV's anymore as I do not have the storage space right now. I take a few here and there, but I end up dropping them off (after gutting and putting case back on) at Best Buy....but not like you can drop 234 of them off there LOL
