I managed to get all our E junk to the depot at the A and P grounds in Christchurch, it was well organised like last year.
I took 6 monitors including one lcd, 7 computers, 8 printers, a fax machine and bits an pieces speakers, keyboards. mice cables.
All was unloaded and sorted. Total for the country was 966 tons and 16.000 car loads.
Christchurch 1069 cars and 69 ton, well done.

How to ask for help
It is essential to keep potential helpers’ interest alive, thinking that this might be something they know. A Headline “Help!!!!” followed by “I wasn’t doing anything different when I pressed this key and the screen went blue and a message came up. What do I do?” is a big turn off.
Here’s a guide.
Headline: be as specific and brief - three or four words - as possible e.g. Firefox won’t open.
Next, brief information about your system if you know it. E.g. I have a Dell laptop with 500 MB of Ram and a 500GB HD, use Vista Home and Firefox ver.3. Your potential helpers have eliminated from their minds a lot of things they know nothing about and are more interested. But, you say, I know nothing about what’s inside the laptop, or programs’ versions. OK tell what you do know, OR download and install Belarc Advisor a free small program that will tell you all you need to know about your computer.Get it anyway, so click the name now
Next describe your problem, e.g. I click the Firefox icon on my desktop to open Firefox, but now it doesn’t appear, only a small box that has a tiny Firefox emblem in the top left corner of the screen. Someone will be bound to know how to stretch a window by dragging a corner.
