Did you know that you can recycle your old electronics, especially household batteries (no car batteries), computers, gaming systems and laptops at the Central Recycling Facility?
Wherever possible our ReUse IT team will refurbish items to sell at our ReUse IT store or give to community members via our ReBoot IT Technology Grants program. Even items too old to be reused will be taken apart for recycling. This keeps your old electronics in circulation, out of your junk drawer, and out of our landfill.
