CR PC Recycler - consider calling or e-mailing the guy quoted above from the Agency to get included in their Home and Business Recycling Companion, which is a guide to recycling options in Cedar Rapids Linn County.

no scam , recycle any and all electronics at the solid waste agency, free to you (includes clock radios, portable phones, vcr/dvds, etc.) Another recycling options for ANYTHING computer related is Goodwill Industries and their ReBoot Program - greater good comes from recycling anything computer related with Goodwill rather than the landfill.

refreshing to see creative thought in process. why is it met with such resistance and negativity? are the pianos hurting anyone (well maybe if I sat down to play), but otherwise, it sounds fun and I'm sure will bring joy to more than a few folks.

ground shingles are used as part of a mixture when making asphalt - it is not straight shingles on the road. DOT allows Recycled Asphalt Shingles or "RAS" mix be no more than 5% of the entire mix. please consider doing a quick internet search for "RAS" to learn more about this road base.

He's been inhaling too much of that shingle smoke! Looks like he's killed a few brain-cells or two.

They grind the shingles (removing metal during grinding process) then use it as an ingredient in asphalt paving to replace virgin petroleum products. It is called Recycled Asphalt Shingles or RAS for short in the asphalt biz. The Iowa DOT has released a specification approving the use of recycled shingles, up to 5% of the mix, for asphalt roads / parking lots, etc. This process is not "grind the shingles and lay them down as is." Check out Missouri and Minnesota DOT efforts - they use tons of it, at a significant cost savings, allowing them to pave more (do more) with their road funds - quite a concept!
