So been taking apart tvs and was wondering if you know of the best way to get rid of the tube? I can get everything else taken care of ....just the pesky hazardous tubes. Any suggestions?

Check with a Goodwill near you. They have a deal to take them. I think it's with Best Buy.

There's some info here also, Some Goodwill's and now some Best Buy's are starting to take the tv/monitors. If I understand correctly you just pull the wires and circuit board(if you want it) and pop the back onto the unit and screw it back down, and they'll take them that way,,
Best buy won't take dismantled bare tubes, but they don't check inside or anything. They didn't care that the cords were missing on mine, so they should take them no problem like that!Quote:

Great place for a small scrapper, they get recycled responsibly, and it's free!
