    What's wrong with low grade in the shred? Isn't it recycled that way too? At least I do have a CRT drop-off, about 25 miles though

    no bear, low grade boards are escrap and considered to be hazardous waste

    technically no boards should go in shred, but we all know theres boards in microwaves, ovens and fridges that will always go through shred, it comes down to a judgement call on what you want to try to slip through as shred
