    Is that for monitors only or for tv's as well?

    At $0.04 per pound an average Monitor would get you about $1.00

    An average 27" TV could get you $2.



    Although hauling enough of them to make a lot of money would be difficult. I can only fit about 12 decent sized tv's in my truck at once, which wouldn't really justify a trip to the yard based on the payout.

    And based off the average weight you would make quite a bit more by breaking them down yourself. If you dont have the time, and you come across them for free then it would be worth adding them to your load when you go to the yard.

    since I don't have the time to do the 22 crt's I have cause im breaking down other stuff lol... I find crt's are better than tv/s for internal goodies. so ya I would break them down and as the other guy said make sure you can dispose of the tube and stuff safely and legally, some states and cities have laws about that so check with your local and state govt. and or dump site
