Electronics Recycling Information
How many old cords, computers, and random electronics are sitting in your house? Stop by on your way in (or out!) of work and we’ll trade you some coffee and donuts for your electronic waste. It’s a great, free way to dispose of electronics the right way!
Electronics are the fastest-growing segment of municipal solid waste. These items have hazardous materials such as lead, chromium, and mercury. By keeping electronics out of landfills we are reducing land, air, and water pollution while also reducing the negative impact these materials can have on human health. Electronics also contain valuable materials that can be saved and recycled into new products. Reusing these materials helps conserve natural resources and reduces the pollution associated with the initial mining or extraction of those natural resources.
