I used to work there. I *can't* get the cool
stuff out. All of it goes in
containers to scrappers.
Most large corporations have a list of companies from whom they solicit
bids for large items and lots being scrapped. You need to get onto their
list. Call their accounting department to find out about it. Don't bother
telling them you're a former employee, it won't help. Oh, and make sure
you give a company name. They often won't deal with individuals.
Be aware that they will NOT break up lots. You'll have to bid on the
entire lot, and dispose of the stuff you don't want.
They may require that you sign paperwork guaranteeing that you will dispose
of everything in an EPA-approved manner.
