Margaret Sork, PT Computers, reports on the new Washington state electronics manufacturers e-recycling program. On January 1, the recycling of computers, laptops, monitors and TVs will be free statewide to the public and other groups.

“This program is unique in that it is entirely manufacturer-funded, and shows that Washington is a leader in providing responsible recycling of unwanted electronics products,” says John Friedrick, Executive Director of the WMMFA. “We expect to collect and process over 20 million pounds of electronic waste in the first year of operations. Our collector network will include over 200 individual collection sites, in every county in the state and in every city or town with a population greater than 10,000—making electronics recycling easier and more convenient than ever.”
