what to do with old junk??

[jayinMS]

im in lamar county, and ive got an old broken dishwasher, and an old TV i want to get rid of. how do i go about disposing of this stuff? is there a place to take it? is there a specific day the county will pick it up? somebody knows this.

Put a bow on the items, drive at least 5 miles from your house at 4:00 am & leave it on a convenient porch.

Call the Lamar County Board of Supervisors. I believe that one Saturday per month (I think the third Saturday) they have an opportunity for residents to properly dispose of items such as the one you mentioned. You might also check www.lamarcounty.com (http://www.lamarcounty.com).

Lamar county does have a program that lets you drop off appliances. I'm not sure which day of the month it is or where the drop off location is. You can call the Lamar Co sanitation dept and get the info.

Put a forsale sign on it and put close to road the next moring it will be gone. works everytime.lol

This should give you the information that you need:

Lamar County Sanitation Department (http://www.lamarcounty.com/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=3)

Call the salvation army and tell them you want to 'donate' some items.

Just start letting it collect in your yard.

At our house we put in on the back porch for dog chew toys

I was going to suggest the same thing. I've done it.:clap::clap: People will steal anything! Thant's no joke. Tom is right.

Why groan this, Upset? Salvation army here will fix stuff up. There are mentally retarded groups that are trained to fix stuff like this too. Up here there are, any way. My company paid a group to put together shipping boxes for us. They got paid and enjoyed the opportunity to be productive.

Heh heh heh. And call it modern sculpture.:laugh:
