    I am a manager at a City Recycling Center.

    First off, you need to be insured and licensed. Recycling Centers need to report where everything goes. If they send it off to someplace that is not licensed then they could get fined.

    Secondly, there is the privacy issue.



    Third is that they probably get money for the batteries and the computers. That is why they are seperate. I am sure they have a large amount of crts but probably rhe full gaylords are stored elsewhere because of universal waste regulations. I know ours has to be.

    Last but not least, we view anybody that scraps as scavengers. They are looked down apon because they look to take revenue away from us. Took me a long time to tell the difference between the different types of junkers out there.
