Hello from the Big Island of Hawaii

Sorry for the dumb question

Well, for businesses and home owners they can recycle their computer equipment every 3rd Wednesday of the month with our state land fill.

OR!



They can give it to a guy like me, who scraps it out, sells it, and then I give what I can't sell here locally to a guy on the other side of the Island.

Since they only pay .20 cents a pound for AL and $1.27 a pound for copper, I'm just going to save it up and freight it somewhere when I get a big enough lot.

It's probably different on Honolulu though.
