if we have faith, aren't mezuzahs enough?
What Should I Do with the Mezuzah Box?
Sacred objects themselves, such as a Torah scroll or the parchment of the mezuzah on which Biblical verses are written, cannot just be thrown in the garbage; they need to go through a special burial process.

I purchased three mezuzahs from a synagogue sale (without the parchment). I’ve heard they are very expensive; can I just place a copy inside?
A Mezuzah For a Car or Mobile Home?
Some choose to place mezuzot in their cars, such as mezuzah pendants that hang from the rearview mirror. Is this problematic?
When to Install a Mezuzah?
When to put up the mezuzah depends on whether you are renting or buying the home, as well as whether the home is in Israel or in the diaspora.
