FabSwingers.com forum: Recycling cables?

Ok you lot, make yourselves useful for once.

I'm sorting out part of the remains of someone's estate and I have a huge box of cables to untangle and sort.

Most of them are obsolete and, I would think, of no use to anyone. Think old SCSI cables, serial and parallel cables, PS/2 cables, old modem cables...

I'm keeping the few things that I think could still be useful.

Can the rest be recycled like electrical goods can, at a tip? Or should they go into the bin for landfill (

) ?

I hate waste but keeping obsolete stuff cluttering up my already over-cluttered place will help nobody.

Cool, thanks. I hoped that would be the case.

I even tried to call the tip to ask but didn't get a reply.
