    Need help from fellow Oklahomans

    Is there anywhere in Tulsa, or surrounding areas that will at least take, if not, pay for electronics plastic? Sims metal management doesn'tind the plastic still being attached to the empty towers I take up there but I still feel like I should find a better outlet for it. The Met refuses any kind of plastic besides bottles and bags. I would really like to find a place to take it.

    Don't feel bad about the plastic on towers cause if they take cars, look at all the plastic, insulation, rubber, etc. in one of them. That's why they pay accordingly.

    I talked to someone there at Vintage Plastics and they want huge loads at once and only deal with Industrial waste. I was way too small time for them. Also, Union Sucks!!!

    I'm not sure about in Tulsa, but when I lived in Nashville it wasn't well known, I found out by accident, but a place there that recycled cardboard and paper also recycled some plastics. Might be worth a try checking with some of them
