Old Rotors Never Die
Is there a way to "recycle" old rotors? Not to use them again on the car but to get the metal recycled - thanks.

I have 3 different containers for weekly pickup. Trash, Recycle(Rotors go here), and green waste. They also pick up used oil and oil filters @ no extra cost.

Scrap metal yard 5-6 cents a pound.
I keep 12 old rotors around for doing suppension work on ppls vettes.
Need to put them in the drivers seat to offset the drivers weight.
12 rotors = 204 lbs, then balance car and adjust sepenssion.
Car may look a little high when no one is in, but that is not when you want the car balanced.

A scrap metal yard will take them and give you a little something for them. Otherwise, they are not much use.
