More then a few minutes, times 500. Then there's the time, effort and gas cost to transport 500 (minus a few I suppose) heaps to the recycling center and whatever they didn't accept then to the refuse/landfill place too. Maybe the coop has other thoughts about how to spend their time? And if it was so easy to clear $2000 why doesn't the university do the work and then get the donation tax credit? Andy.
