Computer Recycling

 

            Moscow Recycling has started accepting computer electronics for recycling on a regular basis.  Because of stringent environmental standards and the manual labor required in demanufacturing computers, it will be necessary to charge a fee of forty cents per pound.  

So why is it important to recycle computers?  Well, as with all recycling, energy is saved resulting in less pollution and it reduces the environmental impacts from the harvesting and processing of raw materials.  Further, many electronic components contain hazardous materials that should be kept out of landfills or incinerators.  

So, if you are interested in recycling your old, stored computer equipment in a sustainable manner, just bring them by Moscow Recycling during our regular operating hours, Tuesday-Saturday, 9:30-5:30. Questions? Please contact Moscow Recycling by e-mail at moscowrecycling at turbonet.com or by phone at 208 882-0590.

Those concerned about information on their hard drives, all drives are sent through a one pass process that writes '0' to the hard drive.  For an extra $5 one can have their hard drive shredded.
