    To me Ewaste seems like a little secret club.........I only see very few people hauling electronics.....When I go to the yard my shred looks bad (ewaste remnants are messy lots of plastic/metal mix) but I don't worry about that........In the back of my mind I know that I will make 100's if not $1000's off the stuff I took apart........Let the others struggle to haul the heavy stuff while I rake in the profits.......I'd say if you have a local buyer for the stuff you mentioned sell it local.....A/C adapters I cut the wire and throw transformer in the shred.......CD/DVD/Floppy drive gets taken apart if green board if brown usually shred........At this point hard drives without boards have just been going in shred for me although I may go back to taking them apart again as I saw cast prices went up some........Either way it won't make much difference what you throw on the pallet as the boards will make up for most of the lower priced items
