New in Salt Lake City

Hello all, I'm new to the scrapping business and to this forum. I work at a call center and my company has been giving me their outdated equipment. CRTs, computers, LCDs, and other telecom equipment. I have a new little family and have been trying to find sidework to make ends meet so recycling has been helping a lot.

I find the responsibility of providing for a family very fulfilling and motivating. Our son is 8 months old and has bright red hair like his mother. He's a big happy kid and just started to army-crawl two days ago.



I enjoy electronics and taking things apart but I'm very new to the scrapping world. I've learned a lot from this forum as a visitor and plan on learning and contributing more as a member. The positive vibe here and the free sharing of info has impressed me. Thanks all for sharing your knowledge. It's made a difference for sure.

Welcome to the forum. I do scrap metal and e-waste down in the Provo area. Nice to see some other scrappers from Utah.

Wekcome to the forum. Read as much as you can there's alot to learn right here on this forum. Good luck with your new family.

Thanks. Have you found a good e-waste yard in Utah or do you usually ship?

Thanks, happyscraper. This place has already been vital to the projects I've done. I'm excited to learn more.

Side... I am new to E-s=waste. I ship my higher end e-waste. I just send 42 lbs yesterday to EWasted. I will let you know how it turns out. I am still looking for local buyersfor the less valuable stuff. (cd drives, PC power supplies, plastic, CRT tubes , etc) If anyone knows anywhere in or around Utah that buys that stuff please let us know.
