I'm rehabbing a few houses and will have about 6 working old toilets (some
are as new as 5 years old but still the old 5 gal flush type) that is being
replaced by new 1.3 gal toilets. Previously I just put a sledge hammer to it
and take it to the dump. Is there a recycle place I could take it to in the
Bay Area?

Put them in a truck, sell them as "antiques" for the rehabbers that
haven't discovered the value of the American Standard Cadet.

You bet, this is something worth joining, and it's free!

If you are responsible for maintaing the new toilets you are a IDIOT
for replacing them!

Sorry to be blunt but the old 5 gallon flushers worked fine every time

Whatever new ones you install will have a added decoration:( A nice
ugly plunger sitting nearby for quick use:(

That was true for the early low consumption units and is how they got
such a bad reputation. The current crop of pressure assist models are
pretty reliable if a little more expensive.
