Dell Computers Is Partnering With Goodwill to Offer Computer Recycling Services

Recently Dell announced that it has partnered with Goodwill Industries, in New Jersey, with a program they call Reconnect.  The Reconnect Program is designed to help protect the environment by responsibly promoting recycling and reuse of computer equipment.  At the same time the Reconnect program will work to connect lower income people with much needed technology products.

Dell will handle the recycling and remarketing of the recycled computer materials, such as the plastics, glass and metals contained in the various parts.  Dell has global experience in electronics recycling and can assist Goodwill Industries with their computer recycling services.

Residents will be asked to remove all of their personal data from the donated computer hard drives, and any other attached storage media, before donating their computers to Goodwill. Goodwill staff will provide donors with a donation receipt at the time of donation so they may write the donation off on their tax returns.

In addition to the Reconnect program in New Jersey, Dell and Goodwill Industries have also partnered with each other in other states for similar programs.

You have a few options open to you when it comes to your home computer recycle needs.  Computer recycling is often done at your local landfill, recycling center or through your local electronics recyclers.  At any of these locations you can take them your old computer, monitor, and printers and they will recycle them for you.  However, they will generally charge you a nominal fee for the service.  The fee can range from about $5 up to about $20 in most areas, depending on the items you want to dispose of; computer recycling will be the most expensive while printer recycling will be less expensive.  Many areas now offer you a special day once or twice per year where you can take all of your electronics to be recycled for free.  They will allow you to bring your unwanted computer and printer equipment.  You will generally find announcements for computer recycling events in your local newspaper.

We Can Help Save the Environment through Waste
Management and Recycling Programs…   

With the ever increasing population of our earth, and the consumerist society which exists today, it is very important that we help to save the earth’s environment through waste management and recycling programs.  There are many different ways to apply waste management and recycling in all areas of the world, but especially with our vast availability of resources here in the United States.  The U.S. leads the world in trash production and any of that trash which can be kept out of the landfills helps to save the earth’s environment from pollution.

With the ever increasing population of our earth, and the consumerist society which exists today, it is very important that we help to save the earth’s environment through waste management programs.  There are many different ways to apply waste management and recycling in all areas of the world, but especially with our vast availability of resources here in the United States.  The U.S. leads the world in trash production and any of that trash which can be kept out of the landfills helps to save the earth’s environment from pollution. 

With the age of technology upon us, we need to find ways to recycle technology products which are no longer of use to us.  Home computers are recycled in most areas which allow you to safely dispose of your unwanted computers, monitors and printers.  Computer recycling is very important because monitor disposal needs to protect the earth from the toxic gasses contained within them.  (The same is true for television set disposal.)  If your local waste company does not recycle computers, look in your phone book for local electronics recyclers or computer donation programs. 

Another important way to help the earth’s environment
through waste management and recycling is to compost as much organic matter as possible.  Your local community probably has programs for weed recyclables and Christmas trees.  These are great programs to help keep organic matter out of your local landfill.

At your home you can start your own waste management and recycling habits as well.  Composting can provide your home garden with wonderful soil.  All you need to start composting is a kitchen counter compost container and a pile in your yard to dump it on each day.  You do not need any special composting equipment to start.   

Another program you can easily start in your own home is as simple as taking aluminum and plastics to your local drop off recycling center, or curbside program.  Many areas offer all residents containers to put their aluminum and plastics in for easy processing.   

Many common items you use in your home you can substitute with recycled products.  You can ask your local grocery stores to use recycled paper shopping bags, or you can bring your own canvas bags to the store with you and use those.  You can purchase recycled copier paper and recycled paper checks.  Think of how many trees your family and community can save by just doing these few simple things!  

It is also easy to recycle moving supplies and packing supplies.  You can either save your supplies to use in the future or pass them on to someone else who has a more immediate need for them.   

It is very important to the health of our environment to find ways to help through waste management and recycling programs.  Think about your life and think of ways you and your community can help out.
