    first off you need a place to dispose of the crt's, if that's all good then why not.
    so long as your scrapping and disposing as you go, not stack tv's up like I did.
    only takes a few minutes to scrap out a tv, and if e-waste is all you do then the degaussing cables
    are about the thickest wire you'll see and probably the only wire worth stripping.



    i'm using tv's to build my business, free pickups along with anything electrical, the difference for me is the cord,
    can't find many tv's out there with cords, a cord ain't much but after a few hundreds tv's them cords add up,
    so I figured if I offer to pick up tv's then i'll get the cords too, and here in oz', a plug has 3 prongs, not 2,
    so I get 33% more brass then you do, ha!
