Hi pcecycle, I saw that you have have been already doing some ewaste and yes you should check your local and state regs on that. You should be ok with just filing as personal self-employment income if you use your name in your busniess name, ie, Bob's recycling, but if you are going to name your business any other way, you might need to file a "doing business as" paper with your local gov.



I started by checking my city regs and then county and then state. It can be different for all those. Also be careful when reading about "at home business" in the city regs, mine has provisions for not running a scrap business from or through your home residence so I have had to restructure my business when I moved here. Laws are written to be interpetted, so read them carefully.
