If you live in the DC metropolitan area (DC, Northern Virginia, Maryland) you can now take your electronic waste (e-waste) to Goodwill locations around the area.
Dell and Goodwill are working together to collect e-waste and dispose of it properly. Both companies guarantee that the collected waste will not be sent to electronic dumping sites in China.
Collect all of your old cell phones, digital audio players, computers, monitors, TV’s, etc. and take them to a participating Goodwill site. Locate participating sites by going to www.reconnectpartnership.com.
Goodwill and Dell are aiming to collect 2.7 million pounds of electronics, keeping their dangerous components out of our landfills. Find your local participating Goodwill today.
