New Year's TekResolution... Go Green, Recycle Your eWaste












This year, make it your New Year's resolution to go green – safely and properly recycle your old electronics at our eWaste Recycling Drive, hosted with the Lower East Side Ecology Center. Bring computers, monitors, fax machines, copiers, CD/DVD/VCR players, stereo equipment, televisions, cell phones, and other unwanted electronics to Tekserve on Saturday, January 16th to be safely recycled. Click here for a complete list of acceptable items.

Anyone bringing electronics to be recycled can enter for a chance to win an Apple MacBook Air. Plus, all participants in the event will receive a $25 coupon, good towards any Mac or iPod (excluding iPod shuffle) from Tekserve, until February 15th, 2010.

WHAT: Your Old and Unwanted Electronics, Safely Recycled
WHEN: Saturday, January 16th, from 10AM to 4PM
WHERE: In Front of Tekserve, 119 West 23rd St. (near 6th Ave.)

Sponsored collection events like these are one of the easiest ways for New Yorkers to properly dispose of their old electronic gear and gadgets, which contain hazardous materials such as lead, cadmium, and mercury. These events are especially important for NYC since Build It Green, the City's eWaste drop-off program was suspended several years ago.
