Don't know exact weight but 400+lbs is a good guess. Its probably more. Mix of old and new boards, peripheral boards telecom, cd and hard drive boards, riser cards and much more. The bigger ic's and north/south bridges have been mostly removed. CPUs, heatsinks, memory removed. Theres still tantalum and monolithics and everything else. The telecom stuff is largely intact, probably 50+ lbs.
I've got everything loosely sorted by population density. All told i may have close to 1000lbs in total weight. I just wanted to get your impression. I am only a 4 1/2 hour drive away I can bring it all to your location. Also I do still have all ic's that were removed

Don't expect full price for any board that has had components removed. The 50# of telecom would be worth $215(with unaltered boards) which would more then pay for the fuel there and back. Sort out the HDD board and CD drive boards, Group the CPU's into the corrct piles, basically have everything sorted before you go, makes much faster when you get to the unloading dock.

Your north/south bridge chips you can put with any green fiber without metal CPU chips. Separate the RAM chips by the following types: silver/tin fingered, RAMBUS, gold fingered. If able to do so, try to remove the heatsinks from RAMBUS chips and that will upgrade them to gold-fingered. Have separate bags or totes for each type of board you have. Don't worry about having less than a pound of certain materials as Boardsort does have a precision scale that can record the ounces an object put on it weighs.
