Many of our customers call or e-mail asking about e-waste recycling for personal computers. The MSU Surplus Store maintains a very large e-waste recycling program for items purchased by the University. We are currently planning on accepting e-waste for fee from students, faculty and staff when we move into our new facility. In the mean time, here is a nice resource put together buy Wired magazine that provides several tips for the reuse and recycling of computers, phones and other "gadgets": Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Your Old Gadgets
Wired must be on an e-waste kick. Here's a great gallery of pictures: Where Gadgets Go to Die: Facility Strips, Rips and Recycles
