    Lightbulb Scrapping Monitors & TV's (Plastic & Glass)

    I have been scrapping electronics lately and the most common drop off items are TVs and monitors, in this switch from tubes to LCD they are very abundant and at the same time very useless to a scrapper.

    This is what I get that is profitable:
    -Power cord
    -Circuit board
    -Copper tube winding



    This is what I have to dispose of which costs me nothing:
    -Plastic shell
    -Glass
    -LCD

    Cracked LCD screens must be worth something somehow!?!?

    If there was a way to profit off everything that would be awesome...I heard that plastic used on all tube TVs and monitors is mandatory high temp plastic which can be valuable if I can find a buyer!

    The glass I smash up into small pieces I have trash cans full of broken glass I bring to the dump...somebody must buy and melt down glass somewhere??

    If anyone has suggestions on profiting from glass and plastic please pitch me your ideas.
