E-waste drive this Saturday

Join us for our annual summer e-waste drive this Saturday, June 21 at Sam's Club in Jackson from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Head to our e-waste page on our web site for a full list of suggested donations for items. Notice the price drop: because of volume, our e-waste recycler is cutting everyone a deal, which we appreciate.

Recycling Jackson's e-waste drive is happening at the same time the Jackson County Health Department is hosting their Household Hazardous Waste drive (scroll down for their flyer). So a quick trip across town and you can get some responsible cleaning done.

Please bring your computers, TVs, stereos, cellphones, and other electronic junk to Sam's and we'll take care of it for you.

Best Buy wants your e-junk.

Sorry for the posting delay, folks. I've been on vacation - just got back from a driving tour of New England.

Getting ready for our June 21 e-waste drive at Sam's, it was nice to hear that Best Buy is now taking certain e-waste items at its locations. It looks like printer cartridges and cell phones are a go, and appliances they'll even pick up for you, but other things are touch-and-go depending on where you're at. Around here, it looks like the closest you can get is Ann Arbor.

Some items you can upgrade and trade-in for Best Buy gift cards. Not bad.

Had an experience with Best Buy recycling? Let us know in the comments. And look for more info on our summer e-waste drive, coming soon!
