What are you guys doing to get rid of crates with peanuts?

We do a bunch of installs for a company that insists on shipping channel letters in wood crates and carboard pallet crates with PEANUTS in them. It drives me nuts lol. Does anyone have any ideas on getting rid of them other then dumping the entire crates into the dumpster? I was trying to avoid that. I wonder if anyplaces recycle them?

I'm going to start charging $50 - $100 per crate. It takes a lot of time, as you all know. To bag those F-ing "peanuts".... I don't just dump them in my dumpster. I like a clean yard.

yea I already told this customer I will be charging a disposal fee from now on. This could all be avoided by using bubble wrap, I could at least reuse that easily for my shipments. But peanuts are horrible.

Peanuts, (ghost turds), are a PITA to get ridd of and I really appreciate the companies that ship using those made of cornstarch. Just squirt them with a hose and they dissolve.
