Now that the election is almost over, what the heck are we going to do with all of those signs?

I know one guy that really loves those signs. At least the really big ones that you see tied onto fences. This guy is a remodeling contractor. Those signs are made from some really nice corragated plastic. They are easy to cut with tin snips or a sharp knife. He cuts them to shape and lays them down for floor protectors while he is remodeling peoples homes. If he accidentaly drops a hammer or prybar no harm is done. And they are free, easy to work with, light weight but strong and store easily. Hows that for a handyman tip?

Most usually just end up in the landfill.

I would just be happy if they came down, period.

I'd like to throw my neighbors sign through his window.. Those things are so ugly and probably have no effect on any informed voters.

Cover a yard sign with posterboard for an extra sturdy yard sale sign?

Well it's good timing for me since I wouldn't dream of having a yard sale here between June to November. Gotta wait until it's nice and crisp out!

I saw the custodian at my son's school gathering up the political signs in front of the school this morning. Too bad there isn't a solution like that to make all of them disappear so efficiently.
