Electronics Recycling

[lowthreeohz]

I need to get rid of a shitton of radios, chargers, parts, computers, etc.. and they need to go to a certified electronics recycling shop. Any reccomendations? In/arond Irving preferably.

Can't you throw all that kind of stuff in a bin at Best Buy?

I have literally an entire f150 bed worth of stuff. I need somewhere secure, as these radios can't be allowed to sneak back into the public.

There's a place off Pioneer and Collins in Arlington that does. Don't remember the name, but I've taken a ton of stuff there. They'll even give you a few bucks if it isn't out right garbage.

Try them, not sure about not allowing the radios back in public.

Doesn't the state or municipal departments have approved facilities?

City of Irving does, but it's not open today and i'm trying to keep from doing any actual work

Matt, thanks for that link - I'm gonna give them a call.

problem is most of those places try to sell off the electronics first, and if it has no value, then they "recycle" them

And if destruction is requested, they usually charge an arm and a leg for "certified" information security destruction

Ya i know... I'm on the phone with them now trying to figure out what gets handled how.

Your yobs doesn't have a place for you throw away your old equipment?

We don't throw much away, all goes to customer sites or kept as spares.

these radios are all past end of life and support with our company, and none of the municipalities that use them want any more.
