CRT Disposal Solution

I have brought many tvs to best buy without a problem. They need to be 32" or smaller.

Something extra...plastics build up quick from other products. What to do with it? I add it to the tvs, then rescrew case back on, and bring to best buy. Tv with extra plastic.

Also,

I don't know if it is true for all states but, in California, you may only bring in 3 electronic item per household per day. To check your individual state, scroll to the bottom of this page.

Though I have never had a problem, it is Best Buy's policy that they don't take disassembled televisions or monitors:

"What We Don't Take:

Console TVs of any size, or tube TVs and monitors larger than 32". Use our haul-away or pickup programs for these items.
Electronics containing refrigerants, such as mini refrigerators or air conditioners. Please contact your local waste disposal department.
Appliances. Use our haul-away or pickup programs for refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washers and dryers, ranges and microwaves.
