I used the ToxDrop in the list above to dispose of my old tv/vcr. I had a HECK of a time finding a place to do the right thing. Maybe things have improved in the year or so since I did that. I ended up driving all over town, to this big burning heap of trash somewhere on the south side, before I found out about the ToxDrop out west and took it there.
The whole thing ended up being as simple as finding someone who needed it. It was cool being able to help out a family who could use a basic machine for word and such. Thanks to the indy.com community for your help and tips.
