Electronic Recycling Geeks (ERG) was formed in November 2011. Created out of the love of computers and the environment by the owner, Linda Marshall. In her work with web site design and computer repair Linda consistently saw unused and discarded computers, monitors, and other electronics stacked in closets and garages. She heard from her customers that they either did not know where to dispose of them or they were afraid of their data being stolen from an old system. Linda knew there had to be way to solve both issues. ERG was born.  Starting in the winter in Michigan was a tough beginning but despite that the computers flowed in. Finding reputable recyclers to work with was a priority.  Linda decided to keep the business in Michigan and work with local, qualified recyclers.
