    NC Ewaste scrapper

    Hi all

    New to scrapping and a fan of this forum. I plan on focusing on ewaste as NC recently passed a law forbidding the disposal of computers in landfills. Plus I like taking things apart.

    I currently have a warehouse where I can store and break down stuff for free. I also have access to my GFs F 150 as well as my car for hauling. That should be enough for the moment but would love to have the resources to purchase a trailer.



    I'll contribute to the forums as I gain experience. Thanks to all the great posters here. I have already learned alot

    Welcome, what part of NC are you in. The only issue I have had with scrapping computers here is yards don't like to take my empty cases.

    Law has been in effect in many states for several years.
