Any comments? > > Larry Calvert No, I don't think you are trash. About three weeks ago our washing machine broke down and our new neighbors had an extra one that had been left in the house when they moved in, so they gave it to us. I installed the one they gave us and threw the old one out in the front yard. It's still sitting there. My question is, "How long can I leave it out there before we become trash?" I live in North Stafford VA and my pickup truck, which had previously sat out front without moving for a couple of months, is now running again, so just as soon as I get it street legal I could theoretically take the washer to the dump. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Mike
