Home Electronics Recycling Dropoff/Drive

This by way of Greener Stock:

Have you ever wondered how to properly dispose of your broken or outdated electronics? We did, so...

Just in time for the spring cleaning season, GREENER STOCK is hosting a Home Electronics Recycling Drive on Saturday, March 13, 2010 from 11 AM until 2 PM at 3528 Columbia Parkway (45226). Drop off the following items for FREE*: TVs, computers (monitors, CPUs, keyboards, mice), audio/video equipment, phones, and gaming consoles.

Recycling services will be provided by Global Environmental Services (GES), one of only 34 e-recyclers in the world that is e-Stewardship accredited. If reuse of parts is not feasible, then every item is broken down, and the original parts are returned back to the manufacturing stream. E-stewardship accreditation ensures that parts are not sent to the landfill or exported to third world countries for dumping (have you seen the CBS/60 Minutes report? http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4586903n ). Because GES believes in providing its clients with the highest level of security, they use only auditable, EPA-compliant, downstream partners who adhere to their charter as a zero landfill electronics recycler. All GES downstream partners are transparent, creditable, and auditable.

GREENER STOCK is a local company committed to providing building materials, design services, and resources to help people in greater Cincinnati create earth-friendly and healthy interior environments.

* Computer monitors and some TVs will be assessed a $5 fee
