Dunno if they do this in the states but we got rid of ours by calling a local charity shop that has a furniture/electrical store and they came and picked it up. We later got a letter telling us they sold it for £20.

Charity shops around our area won't take electrical items, not even battery powered stuff.

i was almost killed in college when, while moving out of the dorms, some assholes through their old CRTTV off the roof and it landed about five feet away.
