Thank you for properly recycling and disposing of your electronics!
Electronic Recycling Law:
Beginning January 1, 2012 landfills are prohibited from knowingly accepting any CEDs for disposal. This includes
televisions, computers, printers, and computer monitors (both residential and non-residential). The burning or incineration
of televisions, computers, printers and computer monitors would also be prohibited.
Public Act 95-0959 Signed into law on Sept. 17, 2008 creates the Electronics Products Recycling and Reuse Act.
Requires electronics manufacturers to collect and recycle or process for reuse residential televisions, printers, computer
monitors, computers, laptop computers and printers (collectively known as "covered electronics devices," or CEDs), and
other "eligible electronics devices" (EEDs) at no charge to consumers.
