Electronic Recycling for the Holidays

The holiday season often brings new gifts and additional electronics, as new items become available and old ones are upgraded. It’s not the best environmental practice, but if you do have items to get rid of, try reusing them. Pass personal items on to friends and family members for continued use; and many charities will take functioning items for others to use.
If those options don’t work, please recycle them. You can hold on to electronic items to recycle during Earth Week, but if you’d like to get rid of them more quickly, consider the resources below, including the new “Greener Gadget” webpage provided by the Consumer Technology Association. We have lots of choices from Omaha, Lincoln, and Iowa. Not all are free and some restrictions exist, so check with the vendor first.
These are not endorsements–use at your own risk.
