    Newbie here from Auburn, WA

    Well, this appears to be the only section I can post in right now so here goes. I'm a commercial electricians apprentice in Auburn currently working for a residential construction company. Started getting into scrapping mostly appliances as I have a steady supply of them from work. BTW does anyone know of somewhere I can scrap out fridges? my local yard (binfords in kent) is great to work with but I was informed that a recent law changes requires me to have each fridge/freezer be stamped and certified before I bring it in. any ideas?

    Other than that, I got into it to help keep the bills at bay (like everyone else) and being able to tackle projects around the house/farm.

    Well Tom, welcome and being that your into construction, use some of your contacts and do a swap with an appliance repairman or installer. They should trade you for the freon for removing it as it has recycle value. Just have them tag it when their done. win-win,,,
