Electronic Waste
After all of the gifts and electronic upgrades
that have occurred over the holiday season
many people have older electronics that they
want to recycle. The information below will
allow you to do just that.
Electronic waste includes desktop computers, laptops, cell phones, cameras, telephone, game consoles and more.
Reusable Equipment
Recycling Equipment
Usable electronics can be donated to
many charities or organizations that will
manage the data and pass your equipment along. These include Salvation Army, Good Will and Share, Inc.
Electronics that are not able to be
used anymore can be recycled at a
number of vendors in the area. These
include Empower Up, IMS Electronics
and any transfer site.
There are also a number of organizations that will repurpose your electronics for
use by individuals that need emergency communication means or are trying to
get their life back on track. This includes the YWCA cell phone program.
