Another eWaste Recycling Drive!
This year, if one of your New Year’s resolutions is to finally get rid of all those old electronics hanging around your place, you can safely & properly recycle that ewaste at TekServe’s eWaste Recycling Drive hosted with the Lower East Side Ecology Center.
Bring computers, monitors, fax machines, printers & copiers, CD/DVD/VCR players, stereo equipment, radios, televisions, cell phones, cameras & other unwanted electronics to Tekserve on Saturday, January 16th (10am-4pm) to be safely recycled. TekServe is located at 119 West 23rd Street (near 6th Avenue).
Anyone bringing electronics to be recycled can enter for a chance to win an Apple MacBook Air. Plus, all participants in the event will receive a $25 coupon, good towards any Mac or iPod (excluding iPod shuffle) from Tekserve until February 15th, 2010.
Sponsored collection events like these are one of the easiest ways for you to properly dispose of old electronic gear & gadgets, which contain hazardous materials such as lead, cadmium & mercury. You know you wanna get that stuff out of the house. Happy New Year – it’s easy!
Note: The following items will not be collected at this drive… home appliances, microwaves, stoves, refrigerators & air conditioners.
