    By me you can give it to the city in the recycling bins. Other places started buying water bottles and #2 plastic jugs so hopefully someone will start to buy ABS

    I tested my curbside plastic pickup also this week, i put out 200 pounds of it from 30 crt's i broke down. They took all of it. That tells me they are picking it up off the curb and baling and reselling it From my experience as long as you can get it torn down to clean plastic they will take it for free reguardless of what type of plastic it is. I would save it up if i had a paying buyer near kansas city.
    I buy and sell all types of scrap and escrap. I buy specialty and hard to sell escrap. I buy resale items. PM me or contact me at jghilino@hotmail.com
    I AM ACTIVELY BUYING ESCRAP OF ALL TYPES. BOARDS, RAM, CPUS AND MUCH MORE

    I'm looking for an "ABS" buyer. One of the guys I deal with is looking into a baler and he has the space to store it. I have several people that will give me plastic for free.
