OT: computer/electronics recycling
Hi All, I have 2 old laptops that I'd like to get rid of and would prefer not to simply throw them in the trash. Is there a place I can drop them for recycling? I live in North Scottsdale, so ideally a place in the vicinity would be great.

From: AZ Pete p...@cactusfamily.com I have 2 old laptops that I'd like to get rid of and would prefer not to simply throw them in the trash. Is there a place I can drop them for recycling? I live in North Scottsdale, IIRC, there's a Boy Scout troop that does a computer swap meet/computer hardware recycling thing on the 3rd Sunday of every month. So you just missed it. It's held by the 5 and Diner in the mall to the W of Indian Bend and AZ-101, so it'd probably be easy to get to on June 17 -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

http://www.azstrut.org/ is another possibility. They also have a number of drop sites (click on Donations) and I see they now have an association with Batteries Plus which has a Scottsdale office.

Depending on the machine specs, I may be able to use for my daughters. I am willing to drive to you and pick them up.

This works out great. There's a Batteries Plus near my house. Thanks! Peter On 5/20/2012 12:24 PM, Dazed_75 wrote: http://www.azstrut.org/ is another possibility.
