What are you gettin for TV/Monitors? May 2014

My yard refuses tv's , the landfill here disposes of them free of charge . Just my personal situation. If I were you I would ride that train till it stops because I don't know of a single yard that buys them . I would have been rich if my yard did by them . I made a nice contract with a man who clears out old stock from the big screen store . He offered to bring me a box truck a month for free. But to recycle these properly after gutting leaves no room for profit . Sadly I declined the offer after receiving only one load.

Yeah delivered to your door is great but it took me a week just to get through the beasts . The box truck was about 26 ft had a 73 inch beast Mitsubishi and a few sonys that were over 400 pounds a piece . I can't show up at the landfill with a truck load of tubes . They don't recycle the glass they just dispose of them . Plus it is about $120 a load if they think your commercial or if they see you more than 6 times a year. I couldn't find a recycler that would make the time involved profitable considering I'm dealing with thousands of pounds of wood, and paying to dispose of tubes.

If you know of a local place to take tubes please let me know ,I just wanted to make sure that they were being recycled and not just disposed of .
