    whale #1 update

    took first load of lite iron and copper to yard last week. totaL $662, second load yesterday, same lite iron, copper and copper alu radiators $884. also sent out .133 lbs of computer scrap probably about $500. total so far $2044. still got at least 2 loads of iron, and 2 more loads of computers over there. I have a 3 way split deal so $700 is my take. not a bad deal since I don' do any thing but tear down the computers. my partner in this deal has 2 strong boys and himself to do all the bull work and hauling. this week I'm working on printers and fax machines, and have decided "I hate printers and fax machines " good hunting to all.

    My yard will take them whole as shred. I no longer tear them down I just pull out the ink carts for the turn in then shred the rest.

    Olddude, Great job. Yeah the best part is that you don't have to haul much. Keep it up.

    this week I'm working on printers and fax machines, and have decided "I hate printers and fax machines
    Like PTS said, pull the ink cart. first then if the printers have lil card slots they will have mid-hi grade boards, yes I do agree tho, they are a pain.
