This might be painful for some, and others might shout Jackpot! But I thought they were interesting pics either way. Your odds are pretty good if you get there before the apps end up in the heaps, but even then some survive!
Cringe!

OK you Maytag/GE/WCI designers that thought your plastic CRAP was something good, take a look! Plastic tub (and tranny...)=krusher food!
A lot of plastic junk (but more newer dryers than anything); nothing vintage except for an older Maytag with the control panel off, a harvest gold Kenmore dryer shell, and a BD Whirlpool top.

Sort of sad and depressing the way they are just piled onto each other-most partially stripped at that-Most merciful thing to do-Rent or Hire the portable Shred-Tech or SSI shredder and let it eat to its hearts(or blades) content-send the rest to the steel furnaces.The way those are-not a whole lot you can do.The crane that piled them could feed them to the crusher-shredder.
Luckily most of this is late-model plastic BS, but there are A LOT of older Maytags in there, usually with nothing wrong other than they don't match a contemporary decor. That whole pile could be gone in a week with the throughput they have. And you practically have to visit everyday to see the new stuff before it makes it to that pile. First stop off the truck is a staging pile where the apps are still in good shape. Flourescent tubes get pulled for mercury content and compressors are cut out of fridges. From there the fridges are stacked and the washers/dryers are piled. Once in a while you get lucky. The other day was the first time I had seen a 1-18 Dryer. Question, what does 1-18 stand for?

Marketing Capability
Frigidaire marketed the most versatile laundry in the 70's. Their 1-18 line stood for "One piece or 18 pounds" The wash will be the same so the owner had complete control over the volume in one machine.
