How to get rid of a large window AC Unit - Easy Recycling Tip

This morning at 8:30, I posted an ad in the Free Stuff section of Craigs List:

SCRAPPERS: Large 24K BTU window AC unit alongside driveway at . Copper, aluminum, steel. No need to knock. Just take the thing away.

At 9:20, my wife and I were coming back from walking the dogs. A guy in a pickup was just driving off with the thing in the back. Now I don't have to move this 200-lb piece of junk. Any metal scrap will be picked up if you post a similar ad on Craigs List. Scrappers are looking for it all the time.

12. I'm not sure what that has to do with my thread, though.

6. Was the residual freon recovered as per law?

Or will the salvagers just open the lines to escape into the atmospere to further damage the ozone layer?

9. What do you think?
Anyhow, the reason it stopped working was a refrigerant leak from a fractured fitting. So, there wasn't any left in there anyhow. It had already leaked into the atmosphere.


This "progresive" just won't let up:

13. You didn't mention that in your OP

And you were giving advice to people without mentioning that if possible the freon should be recovered. Enviromental laws are a pain and not only in the wallet but there are reasons for them.

11. Years ago, I put an old fridge in the alley.

The scrappers usually get them within hours. This time, some asshole came along and just cut the copper lines so he could just take the coil. I heard the pop and hissing of the freon escaping. I went out and chewed him out, got his plate number, and reported him to the city.

Ever since, I don't put stuff with freon in the alley.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

I miss the old freon cans. They made great targets when full.

I've shot my share of paint and shaving cream cans...

Found tracers at a gun show, wonder if it would be worthwhile to shoot one of those Coleman lantern propane tanks with 'em.

Or even a grill-sized tank  :naughty:

Just put sign on the thing that Elvis owned it and it will be gone in no time.
