Why recycle your electronics?

Computers, monitors, televisions and cell phones contain hazardous
materials, such as lead, mercury, and cadmium. Recycling your unwanted
electronic items keeps these hazardous materials out of the waste stream
and the environment.


What is accepted?

    * Computers (laptop and desktop)
    * Monitors
    * Televisions 
    * Printers
    * Scanners
    * Keyboards
    * Mice
    * Cell phones 

All makes and models are accepted and drop off is free. Events are open
to NYC residents only.  Each resident can bring up to five pieces of
equipment.  All equipment will be recycled.
