If? You're honest, aren't you?

Hello all -

I'm in Western Connecticut. I have a bunch of junk
appliances (and other items) that I need to get rid of.

Nearby, there is a privately-run (but city sponsored)
recycling center that accepts things like appliances, tvs,
etc. They have a "rate schedule" for individual items, such as:
tv - $15
air conditioner - $25
washer or dryer - $20
You get the idea.

But I have several tvs, a large old freezer, couple of air
conditioners, washer, dryer, dishwasher, and more. And no
way to move the larger items by myself.

I probably need to call the "haul-away guys".

But I was wondering what they cost?
Do they charge by the hour, by "the item"?

Will I pay $300? 600? $1,000?
Plus the "disposal fees" on top of that?

Any other way I may be overlooking to get rid of old appliances?

Would it be more economical to rent a van, hire a friend,
pay the recycle fees, and do the hauling myself?

Thanks,
- John
