Ahh I actually stared worrying about that yesterday. I should have just taken them off to be safe. I'll get the ones off that have plastic pins holding them. What about metal that is soldered on?

I read the tips from Recyclotrops and was wondering if anyone had confirmed that with a shipment. I'll try it out and let you guys know what the cost was. Thanks all.
I have 145 lbs to ship to ewasted. Would it be cheaper as 1, 2, or 3 boxes? I'm going to get shipping labels from ewasted. Thanks.

Excellent, thanks. I'll get cutting.

Thanks, happyscraper. This place has already been vital to the projects I've done. I'm excited to learn more.
Thanks. Have you found a good e-waste yard in Utah or do you usually ship?
Does anyone know of a place near Salt Lake to take tubes? I'll be contacting Goodwill, BestBuy and other possibilities and let you know if I find anything.
Hello all, I'm new to the scrapping business and to this forum. I work at a call center and my company has been giving me their outdated equipment. CRTs, computers, LCDs, and other telecom...
