Saying Goodbye to Old Electronics
While many of us are parting with old computers, cellphones and more to replace them with the latest smartphone, laptop or tablet, it is important that we consider how we replace these electronics and where we are leaving the old ones behind. Simply throwing out an old monitor with the trash or into a dumpster can not only be illegal, it can also contribute to damage to the environment. Electronics consists of metals, chemicals and more, making them less than ideal or acceptable to be thrown in a bin with the rest of your garbage. As of now, it is reported that 25 states currently have laws in place regarding the proper disposal of electronics, and in order to keep the environment clean and even prevent certain health risks, it is important to abide by them. Computer and electronic recycling is much less of a nuisance than you might think: many cities and towns run recycling programs or allow residents to leave certain electronics outside with their other trash. Companies like ours even go a step beyond and when considering the recycling of a large quantity of e-waste and electronics, Clean Out Your Office will happily come to YOU and pick up these items, often times for free. We want to make sure that we do whatever we can to help recycle office equipment properly, which is also while we are more than willing to travel throughout all of Boston, MA and beyond to assist in the process of ridding your home, office or school of any unwanted electronics.
