I think the true concern is, that yards will use the CAR issue as an excuse to dock you big time for appliances.
Gimme a break, no yard here in the area processes jack....
USR does take the
freon containing appliances aside and has someone come in and remove it, but everything else goes straight into the shredder.
So the concern will be, that someone that has large amounts of scrap appliances like we do will ultimately HAVE to get CAR certified to get a decent amount of $$ from the yards.
SIMS already tried docking us with some BS CAR excuse when we were exploring getting a container delivered and picked up.
On top of charging us $75 per hour for the driver they were going to give us $40 for mixed shred, while every Joe Schmoe at the gate was getting $55.
Why is it, that the people who do things right always get the short end of the stick.

This is a very large company and I do think these laws are only going to make it harder for the smaller companies. Also forcing others to go with dumping on the side of the road or on private property. A lot of these laws are made for the bigger to get even larger. I only sell SA my scrap apliances!
