create a line item in your flat rate pricing manual that refers to
refrigerant recovery and disposal of EPA hazardous waste. $149.99
ought to cover most situations, no? recycling machines aren't cheap,
nor are vac guages, micron guages, guage-sets, etc. Even if you
re-use the same gas, it takes your specialized equipment and your time
to perform the work of recycling, and time is money.

I think we covered this last summer, but here is a link to the tank I use.
I do not pay $56 for it though, it's
less than that.

Just curious, where do you dispose of the tank and do you suck the
last bit of vapor out of the tank before disposal?

with a one-time-use, it seems like a complete waste of money to me.

You turn it into URI and they dispose of it for you. One time use
cyclinder. The valves are open when purchased,
onced closed they will not reopen. It is a convienence and it is much easier to
tote then the 50#'ers. The supply
houses I use were having trouble getting the tanks emptied and returned in a
promt manner.
