Big $$$ recycling appliances

This paragraph was in today's business section:

"The best-performing Minnesota stock this year is little Appliance Recycling Centers of America, the St. Louis Park company that collects and recycles appliances under contract with several local governments and has a growing retail business for dented-and-scraped appliances."

Just like with animals, euthanasia when adoption is needed.

Some things are best euthanized. The local scrapyard is paying an average of $5-$10.00 each for appliances. That's AFTER I've removed the copper, and aluminum.

Things like newer GE washers, with the bearings roaring, or 'fridges that need compressors.
