Anyone know how you are supposed to dispose of used brake rotors? I got 4 that I just swapped off of my car along with the pads that I want to get out of my shed.

Find a steel shop or a welding shop and ask to put them in teh scrap bin. They should be more than willing.

yes, if you can go to calgary metal works they would give you cash, although not a lot

^ They'd give you perhaps $0.04 for them... if that. They pay by wieght, and these not-so-heavy rotors wouldn't even read on their scales. Just stop by on a Sunday, or after 6:00, and they usually have a metal bin sitting right out their gates, and just toss it in there.

alrite sounds like a plan, is calgary metal works the place thats in the industrial area just off of Blackfoot trail, sort of by the flea market and what not?
