CRT tv

You might even be able to make some money picking them up if people have limited options. Charge $10 to take one, strip it and stockpile the copper. Then sell the tubes. But getting paid to take them would make the time for stripping them more worthwhile.

I need to clarify this!



It will cost me $0.20 per pound to get rid of whole tvs. This doesn't include my time or costs to deliver.

They want $0.28 per pound for bare tubes. These need to be in gaylords, so an additional cost.

There are fewer and fewer places to get rid of CRTs, so if I set my prices (charging people) right, I may have some decent money left over after paying the company taking them.


Nobody buys CRTs.

Eh, on rereading your post again I see you plan to charge for removal.

Feel free to ignore my prior post in that case. I'd delete it but, maybe someone will find it useful.

I got no clue on what you can charge someone to remove it. I usually only charged for consoles cause of all the wood an weight. Plus I had a way to dispose of the tubes at no cost to me so that's a fee I didn't have to factor in to my bottom line.

Good luck!
