REUSE and RECYCLE
We know that the term “obsolete” is relative. Technology that you deem obsolete may serve someone else just fine. Our goal is to extend the life of the collected equipment via secondary markets whenever possible.When reuse is not possible, we recycle. . . Nothing is wasted!

Recycling vs Disposal
- Of the 2.25 million tons of TVs, cell phones and computer products ready for end-of-life (EOL) management, 18% was collected for recycling and 82% was disposed of, primarily in landfills.
- From 1999 through 2005, recycling rate was relatively constant at about 15%. During these years, the amount of electronics recycled increased but the percentage did not because the amount of electronics sent for end of life management increased each year as well.
- For 2006-2007, the recycling rate increased to 18%, possibly because several states have started mandatory collection and recycling programs for electronics.
68% of consumers stockpile used or unwanted computers in their homes. - As of January, 2012 Illinois law bans most electronic devices from the landfills.
