    Question Dead TV disposal

    What's the environmentally correct way to dispose of an old tube TV these days? I have a 36" Toshiba that bit the dust.

    Is there a sign out in front of MME that says, "Dead TV disposal?"

    Heck it's easier to find a 94' R package than it is to dispose of on old TV!

    Just set it out on the curb with a "FREE TV" sign on it, and I guarantee it'll be gone before you know it!

    Good point, POS. Sammm, you might want to get advice from Creek on this.

    Craigslist "Free" section.

    Just set it out on the curb and post an address or location to pick it up.
    ...and across the line.

    Never under estimate the power of "free". It seems the world is full of Cheap Bastards!
