"shred"

I made this thread to discuss& learn the limits of "shred",
What the yards will or will not classify, or for that matter, Accept certain items listed as shred,
What are some of the items that are surprisingly takable
what items will be turned down?
what are the best Money making items for this category?

For example;
1. Will yards take cushion items (furniture/ matresses) that have a frame inside of them WITH the cushion still on them?



2. Will yards accept metal shred items that are blended with plastic parts?
share what you know please!(:
thank you!

My yard will deduct for any plastic or tires. Not sure about the mattress.

No padding on matresses,
no plastic dishwaher tubs,
No tv's / monitors
no propane tanks
no tires
no wood
Nothing containing freon (goes to a shed where it is Recovered)
No pcb ballists
No steel cable longer than 5 feet
No rail road property
ECT. ECT. ECT.
I read this sign everytime in the payout line.

Yards by now won't take steel fencing or mattresses (even with the pad removed) they say it clogs the shredder that they send the stuff to...

The yards by me are pretty liberal. They take a quick glance in the truck and tell you where they want you to dump it. It helps to have a good relationship with the guys at the yard. They are much less likely to hassle you if you have some marginal stuff on the truck.
