Do you have to roll it up in sertin types of kg.

Answer 1

no just strip the plastic outta core off, either burn it and beat it with a hammer to remove the burn out bits, or strip and then compress into a lump and weigh it in

Answer 2

You don't have to sort it into sizes, it's all going to be melted down.

You have to strip it, but it's illegal to burn the casing off these days, due to the toxic fumes.
