Recycle your old handhelds, cell phones, MP3 players, and even inkjet cartridges

I hate the thought of my garbage ending up in a landfill, especially when it’s not quite yet garbage.

Case in point - I had an old PC I couldn’t even get rid of. Non-profits wouldn’t even take it because it was too old. It was a Pentium II or III that worked fine. It needed a new OS, but other than that it hummed on nicely. I finally found a friend who would clean install an OS and put it back to work.

I digress. It looks like the post office and Clover Technologies Group are trying to help us out by recycling our “old” stuff with a pilot plan. The result? Less stuff in the landfills, less heavy metals in our water, better air. You get the point.
