[Hidden-tech] Free Electronics Recycling at Best Buy

[Out For Reel LGBT Film Series]

Hello H-T'ers,

Just thought I would share some good news:

"Nov. 11 -- Best Buy Co. Inc. announced that it has eliminated the $10  
recycling fee for electronic items collected through its nationwide in- 
store recycling program.
Consumers can now drop off items with screens up to 32 inches for tube  
televisions and 60 inches for flat-panel televisions, free of charge.  
In addition to televisions, the in-store recycling program includes  
computer monitors, DVD players, audio and video cables, cell phones  
and other electronics.

The company collected 83 million pounds of electronics in 2010 and  
wants to collect more than 1 billion pounds of electronics by the end  
of 2014. Best Buy said it only works with certified third-party  
electronics recyclers, which must carry either the R2 or eStewards  
certification."
