    180 pounds of sheet iron / shred in 2 mini fridges

    Had a bunch of small stuff (cord ends, tin cans, bottle caps, twist ties, spray paint cans punctured, Christmas light bulbs with socket, coax cable and other small shred items). Was amazed that they weighed 180 pounds! Now to find another item that I can keep the small stuff in until its time to go to the scrapyard... got $.04 a pound... better than the dump!

    I use fridges and appliances as holding tanks for the small stuff as well. when they are full, I load them on the top of a load with the skidsteer and strap it down....

    I do the same thing. I don't collect fridge basically but I collect them sometimes just to throw my small stuff in, it leaves my warehouse and my truck clean.
