Well folks, it’s back! We usually hold our annual recycling event over Earth Day, but this year, moving it to the fall made much more sense.
If you have old, broken, and obsolete electronics, you can recycle them for FREE on October 23rd! This year, we are also upping the ante and holding the event in two locations—our brand new store in the Mall of New Hampshire in Manchester AND 30 Community Drive in S. Burlington, VT (Ben & Jerry’s headquarters)! See below for more details.
WHEN: Saturday, October 23, 2010 from 9am – 3pm
WHERE: Mall of New Hampshire, Manchester, NH and Ben & Jerry’s, S. Burlington, VT
WHAT: All computers, monitors, printers, fax machines, cell phones, stereo equipment, digital phones, VCRs, televisions, old cables, connectors, adapters. We will collect everything electronic except for household appliances.(*)
Be sure to see our website for a full list of what’s accepted (and what’s not): Smalldog.com/ewaste2010
All of the ewaste collected will be responsibly processed in the US by WeRecycle. While a small percentage of the ewaste can be salvaged, in most cases ewaste is broken down so elements such as tin, copper, silicon, beryllium, carbon, iron, aluminum can be reused in other electronics. Plastic, steel and glass can also be recycled. Certain waste goes to to manufacturer take-back programs.
Hope to see you there!
