2 backplanes from a Nortel PBX system. I do like the big PBX phone systems.

Got a call last week asking if I wanted some digital and IP phones from a big PBX system. It seems they were taking up warehouse space and were headed for the dumpster. I picked up about 20 big boxes and there were 40 to 50 per box. They have some good boards in them but the plastic is another problem. You start out with 20 boxes of phones and when you're done you have 30 boxes of plastic no one wants.
I'm just up the freeway I need to come to Nashville on some other biz if u would like to donate
When are you going to be in Nashville?Quote:

I found this card this morning and thought it was interesting. It came from a Nortel Application Module (voice mail).

to bad you have not got into ebay......I'd say that board would bring about 10 times scrap value (around $30?)Quote:

I have talked to the powers that be and they are finally setting everything to the side for me and they call me when they need it picked up. All for free and they are located within a few miles from where I work.Quote:

I talked to an old friend a few weeks ago and found out the company he works for has been shipping their old lead acid batteries to properly dispose of them.
They told me I could come and pick up what they had and I ended up with 1040 pounds of batteries.

I received a call later today and they have found more. They have 30 more batteries that are between 100 and 125 pounds each.:)
Might have to make several trips.
I picked up some Lucent/Avaya voicemail PC's that were headed for the dumpster this week. I found them interesting and wanted to share.
Now, before yall start reminding me about better than scrap value, I know about it as well as ebay, cl and the other various ways of selling things.
I don't need to be reminded.
I'm not trying to be a d**k but it just gets old after a while. Save it for the noobs.
I say that with a smile on my face and a song in my heart.
You guys and gals are really awesome. :)
