    I do nothing but ewaste, mainly computers, servers network equipment, cell phone.



    My total so far is 61,131 lbs. There is probably another 4-5,000 lbs sitting in the shop, but most of that won’t get turn in until January.
    I keep detailed records on a spreadsheet which I update every week.
    A rough breakdown:
    10,194 lbs sent to my ewaste buyer (mostly boards, cell phones, RAM, CPU, other higher value items)
    6,082 lbs power supplies
    3,676 lbs low grade breakage (floppy drives, AC adapters, fans, transformers)
    2,011 lbs wire
    3,000 lbs Aluminum, copper, brass
    Rest is all plastic, metal cases, etc.
