    I figured it would probably be better to strip it since they told me that the boards are worth more than the tower alone. I just don't know how to go about doing that. I feel it would be a shame to just throw it all out if I can make some money from it. I got 58.00 for my circuit boards and floppy disks/hard drives that I brought in last time. The cab fare shouldn't be more than 10 dollars. But this time I have 8 computer towers, a printer, a bed frame, a heater, assorted smaller metal pieces like door knobs and in the basement I have more stuff too like a few old metal ladders, tools, a big charcoal bbq grill, metal cage parts and more stuff. I wanted to bring it all in one shot.

    its not too hard to figure out how to remove the boards from a tower.
    u just need some screwdrivers

    golden rule: the more work u do by stripping & sorting the different metals & grades of boards, the more u get paid.
