Yeah I just got a decent check from my ewaste and first thing was pay some bills LOL
Are those compressors???? You don't break them down???
That's a nice haul, how much did you get for your copper if you don't mind me asking. I just got an e-mail fro a local yard and said that copper and aluminum both went up but did not say how much.
Those AC compressors can be cut horizontally just above the 3 spot welds & the case breaks into two.
Then lift up the top part of the case, drop it on something hard, & the iron core & copper windings will drop out.
If they don't do a vertical cut & split the casing a bit. 2 or 3Lbs + copper wire in each one.
Wow, that a nice haul. Makes me envious. (sp?)

Made for a nice pay day last time and I've been saving them up for months, if times get tough that should help me out.
BTW Libertytow, nice haul!!!!
