just like others have said just heat it up with a torch and pop it off with a hammer it will be well worth your time since we are paying $10.25 a pound for them. If you are unable to make it to our recycling facility in south carolina you can ship it and we pay for shipping if you have over 40 pounds which you have stated you do so its a win win for you. here is a link to our buyers and sellers thread here on the forum
