Spring 2013 Electronic Waste Recycling Events
Spring (cleaning) is here and the Lower East Side Ecology Center (LESEC) has scheduled a number of electronic waste events to help clear old and unwanted electronics out of your closets without trashing the environment! Drop-off your tech gear at locations in all five boroughs during March, April and May to have it responsibly recycled.
A list of acceptable materials can be found here. LESEC accepts electronics from households, not-for-profit organizations and small businesses (less than 50 employees) but they don’t accept home appliances such as microwaves, refrigerators, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners, kitchen appliances, etc. They also do not accept carbon monoxide and smoke detectors.
For directions, flyers and more information, go to LESEC’s website.
Also, check out their E-Waste Warehouse if you can’t make it to one of their events.
