    I still think it's a good idea (for me, anyway. It would depend on your circumstances). I already do something like this, only I don't have the trailer at the end of the driveway. I do my teardown in a five room cabin. My biggest issue is the plastic which entails a dump run every few days. As for the computer towers, all the ones I've gotten are metal covered with plastic so the scrap yard takes them. I take the plastic from the iMacs, eMacs, copiers etc a hundred pounds or so at a time. That way, I'm not overwhelming the landfill or myself. Same way with the CRTs. I take them in 10-15 at a time so Goodwill folks don't get overwhelmed. Once in awhile they'll infer that if this was a "business" there would be a difference.
