For me.... it's "find the nearest dumpster and fling"
I pitched a 20" Sony with built in VCR (now I wish I had kept, but it had intermittent audio issues)
Anyway.. in 35 years of disposing of TV's, I've never heard a tube go off like that one did. It sounded like a bomb, and blew the dumpster lids up....

It should be said that responsible recycling is the correct method of disposal for CRTs, rather than putting everything straight into a landfill without attention to what's in it. And that's what happens to the random dumpster stuff...

In this town, that costs about $5 or $10, payable to the recycler. If you bring in other stuff of recycling value at the same time (which you know you have back under the bench somewhere) it'll even out on a trip to trip basis.
