    [QUOTE=WMSTR;85561]I have never really thought about this till now.
    My metal yard is currently paying 130 for unprepared and 160 for prepared
    my appliance yard is paying:
    Duhumidifiers - $2.00
    Microwave - $1.50
    Stove/Ovens - $7.00
    Water Heater - $6.00
    Washer - $6.50
    Dryer - $5.00
    Dishwasher $3.50
    Refridgerators
    Mini Fridge - $1.50
    Regular - $ 6.00
    Commercial - $19.00
    Freezer - $6.00
    Chest Freezers - Steel $14.00, Plastic $5.00
    Mini Stove: $5.00
    Over/Under Washer and Dryer: $11.00
    Stove/Microwave Combo: $10.50
    up to now I have been leaving the freon stuff alone and getting charged 8.00 a compresser. so I tend not to take them
    I have also been taking all the #2ins out and motors.



    So at .065 a pound you would need the items to weigh more than the following
    Duhumidifiers - 31 lbs
    Microwave - 23 lbs
    Stove/Ovens - 108 lbs
    Water Heater - 92 lbs
    Washer - 100 lbs
    Dryer - 77 lbs
    Dishwasher 54 lbs
    Refridgerators
    Mini Fridge - 23 lbs
    Regular - 92 lbs
    Commercial - 292 lbs
    Freezer - 92 lbs
    Chest Freezers - Steel 215 lbs, Plastic 77 lbs
    Mini Stove: 77 lbs
    Over/Under Washer and Dryer: 169 lbs
    Stove/Microwave Combo: 162 lbs
