Computer and Electronics Recycling

Why recycle electronics? As consumer electronics technology rapidly improves and prices get lower, it is estimated that billions of consumer electronics will be scrapped during the rest of this decade. Through reuse and recycling programs, these materials can be refurbished for reuse or demanufactured for recycling. By not putting your electronics in the trash, natural resources and energy are conserved, valuable and potentially harmful materials are recovered and landfill space is saved.

SWANCC-area residents have many options to recycle computer and electronic items.

Every year about 40 million computers or televisions are discarded in this country alone.
