    HELP - E-Waste board buyer in the Milwaukee WI area

    Hello,



    Does anyone have a contact for an E-Waste board buyer in the Milwaukee WI area?
    If no one knows, does anyone know the best way to search for this service / topic?
    I have tried Google and had no success. I have a bunch of boards I would like to get rid of. However, I would also like to talk to someone regarding these boards before selling. To see if the buyer is even interested or weather it is even worth it. I am hoping the E buyer can could give me some in sight as to what he is really looking for. So that I do not waste his or my time!

    Thanks

    I have never sold motherboards to them but I have seen guys bring in cardboard boxes full of motherboards at Action recyclers on 53rd & W State St.

    Theres an Alter Metal Recycling in Janesville...I don't know how much you have, what grade, etc if it would be worth it to you to make the trip, but the Alter up here buys all grades, even low grade, and they pay pretty good...last two times was 15 cents a pound on low.

    I am in the area quite often picking up other loads. Let me know what kind of weights you have as well as the type of boards and I will send you some pricing.

    What im doing with all the e-scrap is just snipping off all the insulated wire (.55 cents a lbs.!) and taking apart all the circuit boards and putting it in a large flat rate box and putting it on eBay when it gets full and selling it for about 10 bucks.

    Wow, I really think you could make a lot more by checking out our buyers with their price lists, and you don't have to pay the Ebay fee's. Our buyers won't give you bad feedback,,,

    Maxum Metals is located in Deerfield. We have used them twice now and they offer free pickup, which helps immensely.
