    Hot water tanks

    Ok so I have 2 right now waiting to be dropped at the scrap yard but I have a quick question. Do I need to break them down at all? I know to take off the brass fittings but do I need to take out the insulation and stuff or are they usually taken whole?

    No. Just take them in. No bonus for neatness.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
