The Launch of Computer and Electronics Depot Locations Throughout the Country expands to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
To answer the growing demand for proper disposal of computer and electronic equipment, the Electronic Recycling Association of Alberta, and soon of Canada offers a financial incentive to organizations and individuals who bring down their old computer and electronic equipment to the depot.
Edmonton, Alberta, (PRWEB) July 12, 2004 -- Loosely based on the Bottle Depot
model, this location will offer a refund on computers, monitors, parts,
accessories, and other electronic items, such as televisions, VCRs, satellites,
telephone equipment, etc. Unlike other solutions currently available where a fee
is charged for disposal of this type of equipment, you are able to receive money
back through this program.
Refunds range from $0.25 cents for old
computers and monitors, $1.00-$50.00 dollars for newer and working items, to
thousands of dollars for certain mainframe systems and telephone equipment.
Depot location in Edmonton is 11404 143th Street, right by the
EcoStation.
Electronic items collected are inspected and a value is
determined based on their reuse value, amount of recoverable materials, be it
reusable components, parts, or small amounts of precious metals found on some
circuit boards. Your rebate will be a percentage of the recoverable amount.
Tax-deductible receipts are also available for some items from member
charities.
Give them a call to check over your Ewaste for possible buried
treasures with the assurance all other items will be recycled appropriately
keeping the highest environmental standards in mind.
Several locations
scheduled to be opened throughout the country to deal with the growing demand
for proper disposal. Soon the days of our garbage bins, and landfills being
filled up with electronic waste will be over. With a financial incentive to
recycle, and a government program aimed to prevent burial of any electronic
waste we can count on a cleaner environment for generations to
come.
