Thanks for the info, Hoss. This is great information. URT is Universal Recyclers and does glass-to-glass recycling. They have a facility about 2 hours from me. If the company you take them to takes them for free, that means that URT is paying them for the tubes. All other places I've found charge for it and are half way across the country. Honestly, I'd be satisfied just finding a place that would take the tubes off my hands and cover shipping...
