is there any special procedures i need to follow when disposing of a catalytic converter?? what about the rest of the exhaust pipe/muffler would it be something i could drop off at a recycle center?? not looking for money..just dont want to throw it out and have it sit in a landfill if it can be recycled.

Trust me those things wouldn't sit in a landfill for very long. We have a guy that comes around once a month and buys them from us for really good prices. I would take it to a scrap yard and you can probably get like $50 for it. They should take the rest of the exhaust too.

anyone know a decent scrap yard near newark/elkton?

you have the newark recycling center on albe drive off of old baltimore pike... its a metal scrap yard, i take stuff there all the time for work.

yeah cat converters are worth money im pretty sure. ive herd of people cutting them off cars and such to cash them in? so maybe you can get some change

i need a cat for my jeep if its stil good i'll take it off your hands....

Cats are filled with platinum coated balls. very expensive and very profitable to recycle
-
Yup, a platinum/Palladium blend. whether or not they're a two way or three way cat adds the possibility of cesium and rhodium
