HOW TO RECYCLE ELECTRONICS – A BEGINNERS
GUIDE
• It is important not to simply throw away your electronics. Not only is recycling electronics good for the environment, but when you toss electronics in the trash, landfills become exposed to toxics inside the products.
• Another way to reuse electronics is by using the manufacturer’s takeback program. - Many companies that produce electronics will recycle your old gadgets for free, and some may offer money back or trade-in value for your efforts.
How to Recycle Electronics that Can be Reused• If your product is in good enough
condition to be reused, donate it to a respectable reuse organization. - Reputable companies won’t export goods for reuse unless they are fully functional, ensuring that they are being handled properly.
How to Recycle Electronics at the store
Staples office supply takes back many electronics products free of charge because of their partnership with HP.
Best Buy takes back electronics at every store they have, including televisions.
How to Recycle Electronics that Can be Reused • If you are looking into how to
recycle electronic hand held devices, cell phone recycling is an easy thing to look into as well, because you can mail them back for free to many recyclers.
Before you can recycle your
computer, you must erase your data from
its hard drive.
Make sure that you don’t just erase the files, you need to
clean the hard drive so that it can’t be
recovered by anyone else.
Some recyclers do this for an extra
charge, or you can use free software
that overwrite your data, like
Active@KillDisk and Softpedia DP Wiper.
Recycling electronics is good for the
environment, can save you money, and
is good for the health of the human
beings around us. Taking the time to
be more thoughtful with your old
devices is surely worth it.
