    Best Buy Recycling

    Is Best Buy Recycling free. It looks like a great place to take stripped tvs to.

    Thanks, Dan

    God is great, scrap is good, and people are crazy

    Its better to be scrapping and thinking of God than sitting in church thinking of scrapping

    ......The information is right there in the link. You pay $10 for each tv, they give you a $10 gift card.

    Be sure to check the restrictions for your state. Maine does not take disassembled TVs or monitors.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    That's when you start "shoulder tapping" in front of the Best Buy and try to recruit people to turn them in for you. Either that or start wearing disguises! The latter sounds like more fun though

    apologies if this was already said.

    Best Buy will charge for monitors and YES they will give you a gift card. However, you CANNOT break them down. You do, they will not accept them.

    We're lucky here. We get 10 cents a pound. Too bad we couldn't workout shipping.
