I've always thown them in my trash. Never too many at once so that my can wasn't too heavy. Most co's have a weight limit, beyond that they aren't hazardous material so you don't need to call anyone.

They are very unlikly to do any damage to any of the hydrolics on the dump truck.

One or two at a time would take me a long time .

I guess this was enough fun with this thead. Thanks for all the suggestions.

 

I just walk out back into our shop and drop them in the bin...piece of cake.

 

Well, my town's trash contractor said "as long as it fits in the plastic container (automatic pick up type), you can throw your brake discs in there." So that's where they're going. I didn't say how many I had .

 

Yup, mine go in the dumpster too.

I tried a couple of times to put them in the recycle bin, but the recycle guy just pulled them out and tossed them on the grass.

I could take them to a metal salvage yard near me and maybe get a few pennies back, but I ain't waisting the time...

 

I asked this question on the San Diego Solo2 board a few weeks ago, if near San Diego is North County try these:

For Fluids:

Vista Household Hazardous Waste collection facility:
1145 East Taylor Street
TG 1088-A3
open Saturdays 9am-3pm


For Brake bits:

Lee's Iron
1304 Lee Dr
Vista, CA 92083

 

I used mine as an ash tray just seal the holes.

 

In your neighbors garbage can so when they break the compactor you can say it was the people next door

 

Yeah, that's going to work when you have a race car in the garage and the discs are all blue and cracked

 

The way they rust, I'm thinking of just leaving them in the backyard somewere. They would probably reduce to a pile of rust in a month or two. I have about 8 cases of oil (used) sitting in the back too. I need to drop that off at a recycle center.
