Well, I’ve had my system since January. I’ve used everything BUT the snowblower, and I’m getting tired of looking at those huge crates sitting on a guest bed in my basement.
Is it smart to burn or otherwise discard the cardboard crates? I’ve no intention to return anything at this point, unless I need a replacement sometime.
Has anyone done anything fun with all that foam packing? It’ll take me a couple months to actually get rid of it in normal bi-weekly trash pick-up. Maybe I can craft some RC Truck ramps or something…
The cardboard should be safe to burn I would think. I’d be careful of any of the staples and plastics.
No idea what to do with the foam either. I’m just going to throw all of mine away. It’s taking up way too much space and since when you get a replacement and ship the broken in the replacement box, there is no reason to keep them.
We cut up the boxes and foam - and have been filling any unused space in our trash cans with cardboard (recycling) or foam (garbage) for weeks now. It’s almost all gone.
I recycled the cardboard over about 3 weeks. The recycler comes once per week. Most of the foam I placed in trash can as I could fit it. It took about 2 weeks as the trash pickup is twice per week. I kept a small piece of foam to use when I am working down on my knees. I am 74 and it really helps. Th large piece which packed the core I am keeping for the time being as I makes a good resting piece when I place my mower in my front loader to work on it. I rest the entire front loader on this big, heavy foam box like structure. It makes working on the mower lots easier to have it raised up off the ground.
Good luck
Haha, I don’t think that’s very economical, but if they want it back and want to make it free and simple for me I’d be happy to return all the packing. So far it’s still sleeping peacefully on a guest bed.
