    Please tell me you were kidding with that last question. For if not, any hope I had for humanity is now lost.

    Is trucking legal.....Pardon me while I go bang my head against a wall. Here's my answer...if your not shipping drugs, it sure is! Even if it's a Hazmat load..expect your rates to go up for that one tho..

    Gorven offers awesome rates, Mario/Ewasted also, as do several other buyers.

    An once more...I can get shipping cheaper then RLS there..an I live 2 miles out in the freaking ocean.

    Rent the whole truck, or part of the truck, this is how these kind things work. If your not taking up the whole thing, there will be others people stuff on there to. Nobody is dedicating a whole semi trailer to 3 pallets. Which makes it a helluva lot cheaper then the usual shipping methods.

    One again, and as always...YMMV.

    Video of Sirscrapalot - Not sure if this was caused by an empty cooler or a post on the public side



    Now it's time for me to head to the clubhouse for a cold one. Hopefully Sir didn't empty the cooler.

    We can wire funds or FedEx a Check.

    At least I have been enlightened on the spelling of Machiavelli. I have tried to google him a couple of times but just couldn't get it close enough to find it. So thanks for that, 73 Mike

    How the fu ck can you think of going with a company without knowing the pay out rates! Unless they are located close to you I can not think of any other reason. Price is what it is all about, so find out prices! Hell post them here so we can all know. If this CJ place pays well or better that would be good info for all of us...

    The reason I was CONSIDERING CJ Enviromental was simply becuase they stated they would Cover The shipping Cost's becuase of such a large load I have. If they can not Compete with EWasted (CashForComputerScrap.Com) Payout Rates then I Would not even consider them.
    I havent got everything completly packed up yet as im adding to The 2 Pallet Loads I have on a daily basis. I have at least at this point 1150 lbs of Laptops InComplete and close to 175 pounds of Mother Boards and High Grade Boards. Since I dont have My pallet dimensions quite yet i have not been able to get a freight Quote from CashForComputerScrap.com yet.

    CJ Environmental is part of Cash For Electronic Scrap .com. Everything I've heard, I'd run the other way. There are plenty of good buyers right here on the forum. Some of who have responded to you.
