    Thank you for all your ideas....we will keep looking.



    We are committed to doing this the right way. We talked to our local waste management and there is no "legal"way to throw away.

    thanks

    Your local waste management is correct. You cannot legally put CRTs in a landfill - the EPA considers them hazardous waste in a landfill. However, they can be recycled (and even shipped out of the country with proper permits) without them being considered hazardous waste.

    You need to find a recycler or manufacturer that will accept them. Just a quick check on ThomasNET found 3 manufacturers within 250 miles of Louisville http://www.thomasnet.com/nsearch.htm...&navsec=modify You might try giving them a call to see if they take them.
