[Rhonda Sherman-Huntoon]

How about asking a sheltered workshop to remove the metal pieces? You could try
the Durham branch of ARC (Association for Retarded Citizens).

> Here is the situation: City of Durham, Department of Solid Waste has
> approximately 3.500 broken, old ... 90 gallon trash roll-out carts (brands
> are Polycarts, America carts, Zarn). I would like to see them recycled
> instead of dumped. BUT the only company that I found would only take them
> without the metal. That means hours and hours of work to dismantle the cans,
> take out the metal axes, screws and so forth.
> Any help or advice on the horizon??
