I don't smash the lead glass (the brown/purple tinted glass) I've known what that stuff is for a while.
I throw out the remnants because it's legal here, as long as all the electronic components are removed, it can go in the trash. I'd love to take it somewhere else, but everywhere that takes them requires that they are 100% intact (nothing taken out of it)
Well THAT would have been nice to know before we got into a heated discussion about CRT Glass with you. Before you start saying that we are "Inefficient" by not smashing TV's open, at least say what part you are smashing. When people say "Smashing a TV" on here, most of us take that as the WHOLE THING not just the plasitc.
Oh, us down here in Texas usually use large trailers and organize our scrap rather that just tossing stuff in the truck. (This is in my area at least)
