Disposing of electronics — Part 2

What do you do with electronic equipment when it has genealogically (and otherwise) "gone south"?
Recycle it. Keep hazardous materials out of the landfills, while recycling metal, plastic, and glass. Look for EPA partners at epa.gov/plugin. Then try:
1. Earth911.com, Should tell you what recycling centers and programs are in your neighborhood.
2. Dell Reconnect, (reconnectpartnership.com) This is a collaboration between Dell and Goodwill. At participating Goodwill centers, you can turn in any brand, any condition. Dell supports the program with recycling technology.
Recycling your equipment will keep it from the landfills. More tips on electronics disposal coming soon.
