The Bingo Hall sounds like the better of the two options...as long as we
have lots of strong young bodies to lift everything onto the truck.
I have always had difficultty charging the general public just to enter. I
would prefer to charge people for the privilege of us disposing of their
garbage...especially the monitors.
How about $2/monitor...and we could put their name in a "hat" for a draw
(say we get some gift certificates from some of the Computer dealers....like
$25 off a purchase over $100...or a credit towards a purchase from our own
sale...thus encouraging RE-USE!)
By charging people to enter, we are discouraging some of the browser/impulse
buyers.

How are we going to deal with Corporations, school boards and
institutions??? We should be charging $5-10 for any system that is not
re-useable eg. anything less than a pentium.
What about those few people who have already pirated the good parts off used
systems and bring us all of their junk???

We cannot continue to rely on charity for the shipping costs. The community
is looking to us to handle their garbage and we have to find a long term
solution that is self-sustaining financially. What happens if we end up with
more than a truckload???? We still have 22 pallets of books looking for
charity to be delivered to a recycler!!!!
