 Clean out your clutter, help others
   access technology, and protect
    your environment. Donate or
recycle your used electronics today:

        eCycle them!

  Americans routinely replace their electronics
  every few years. What do you do when you
  are ready to upgrade your computer, TV
  or cell phone? You probably paid a lot for
  it when you bought it and don't feel right
  about throwing it away. Most people put
  used products into storage or into the trash
  because they don't know what else to do.
   If Americans donated or recycled all their
   used electronics, we would prevent 2 million
   tons from ending up in the trash each year.
   That amount would fill enough 18-wheelers to
   stretch from Chicago to Los Angeles.
  What You Can Do

  Donate for Reuse
  Contact local charities or refurbishers to find
  out where to bring your  used electronics and
  what age and type of equipment they accept.

  Can't Donate? Recycle!
  Contact your local recycling center to find
  out about community programs or collection
  events.

 Protect Your Surroundings

 Safely recycling outdated electronics
 promotes sound management of
 hazardous components such as lead
 and mercury.
                                                                                            Conserve Natural Resources
eCycling recovers valuable materials
from old electronics which can be used
to make new products. As a result,
we reduce pollution and save natural
resources by extracting less raw
materials from the earth.
Help Others

Donating your used electronics
benefits your community by passing
on ready-to-use or refurbished
equipment to those who need it.
                                                <¥> Create Jobs
  eCycling creates jobs for
  professional recyclers and
  refurbishers and creates new
  markets for the valuable
  components that are dismantled.
