I'd suggest putting links to the [http://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/depts/cdph/supp_info/hccrf/household_chemicalscomputerrecyclingfacilityoverview.html Chicago city e-waste dropoff schedule] in here, as well as possibly other groups that take/recycle e-waste if there are any. Possibly FreeGeek Chicago? I don't want to flood them with crap either. --[[User:Knitmeapony|Knit Me A Pony]] ([[User talk:Knitmeapony|talk]]) 12:19, 30 January 2014 (CST)

:We can get money for nearly all the metal, batteries, ballasts, and electronics in limbo, rather than simply giving it to the city so it can do the same thing.

::The stuff already in limbo is a totally different animal, IMO. I believe this is for people who say "I have a truckload of stuff, can I leave it with you". Once it's in the space, other policies may apply (like recycling it ourselves). Unless we have someone committed to sorting and carrying off things within a day or two of dropping off, I don't think we should even consider taking things from the outside just to sell them for parts. --[[User:Knitmeapony|Knit Me A Pony]] ([[User talk:Knitmeapony|talk]]) 01:58, 31 January 2014 (CST)
:::Absolutely right. I didn't see that gigantic pile of totally worthless shit until yesterday. While I took the last load with Derek's help loading it up, we're not going to get into the business of selling people's garbage. Limbo is for stuff people more or less abandon in good faith, after they brought it into the space ''to be used in the space'', because they're lazy or whatever, but it's not a dump for stuff that requires non-trivial disposal. $60 wasn't enough to haul off the last load if the purpose is to make money. I could panhandle more in a few hours. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:29, 2 February 2014 (CST)
