[Cialug] Monitor Recycling

[Anthony Jeffries]

I have used Midwest Electronic Recovery:

At least here in Ames, Best Buy will take monitors...it does cost, I think, and they are limited to 2 per family per day or something like that. They also take computers. If you have lots of stuff, though, I would go to Midwest Electronic Recovery. I think there are also other, similar facilities in the Des Moines ares now.

I heard but have not verified Best Buy will recycle some electronics.  They charge you like $10 and then give you $10 store credit is what I heard.  Maybe their website can verify.

EmbarkIT had occasionally had a recycling day with discounted recycling.  1-800-GOT-JUNK will come and remove but it is not cheap.  It may be less expensive if the equipment still works.
