Where to take old vanity for recycle

[Fish]

So I swapped the vanity we had in the garage and went to take the old one to Restore to donate. They refused it since it has water damage on part of it. So now it’s loaded in the SUV and I’m trying to find a place to just get rid of it. Any suggestions?

West side of Chgo at 5am, pull in an alley, pop the hatch dump it and leave. I've done it 100's of times over the years

Or 5th and Cicero. Get a blow job at the same time. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I’ll even meet you to make sure your safe

Take it to the dump? I’ve not done it in years but they used to weigh you as you go in and charge by weight on the way out.

Worst case cut it up, put it in the trash can. Don't leave stuff on the road I hope Shawn is joking.

I junked a 60" vanity and the garbage truck took it. I did take the sink top off and flattened down the cabinet.

Im actually not. You ever hear "you can take someone out the hood, but you can never take the hood out of someone"
Well thats me. I've dumped full kitchen and bathroom remodels, computer equipment and everything else you can think of. The city comes and picks it up or they have guys doing SWAP clean it up. Believe me, I'm not the only one, I've seen contractors dump full loads from a dump truck over there. Guys dump truck loads of tires. Look in the picture I posted, I guarantee you someone dumped that shit there

I know the city for sure takes anything. When living with my in laws they threw EVERYTHING in the back and it would be taken. Half the time scrappers would be out there like little rats loading up their trucks before the garbage guys took it.

I’m just gonna break the stuff down for now and see what I can fit in the garbage can tonight. Worse case it takes a couple weeks. The sink top is what is going to be the big pita unless I pay the groot fee to just grab it.

I'm probably not close to you, but the burn pit is always open! It makes for some cool pictures sometimes ?

Super delayed response...a little more than that. It's ~35 minutes to my house

Break it down and put in the trash…..easy peasy.

Or bring to work and use the dumpster

I actually did do that.

Now the sink top is another matter. My mom told me Salvation Army will take it. Just havent reached out to confirm yet.

Would also put in dumpster at work. I basically remodeled my house and got rid of everything in my garbage can, neighbors can and the dumpster at work.

Leave it on the curb for garbage day. Allowed 1 big item at pickup.

Id have to check the Groot site, but Im pretty sure they mentioned its an extra charge for large things regarding home renovations.

 

[boostedguy05]

Sink top should be well under the limit for additional fee.

Yeah curb that bitch or sledge and a few contractor bags

If you have the newer trash pickup where they use the arm, WGAF. Get it in the can and the dude doesn't even leave the truck. He doesn't give a fuck how heavy it is as long is it picks up
