Recently, we did a major house cleaning in our office. Old computers sitting around needed to be disposed of. I never thought finding an organization that wants the disgarded ones would be difficult to find. In addition, when cleaning out bank owned properties, we sometimes have to dispose of old appliances. Most recycling centers charge a fee for recycling. In Springfield, I've only found a small group that will allow free disposal.
You can dispose of still-functioning appliances and fixtures by donating them to a favorite charity rather than sending them to a landfill. Visit www.Freecycle.org to find out how you can donate them to individuals who can use them.
Appliances and fixtures that no longer work also can be recycled. Call your municipal solid waste agency, contact the Steel Recycling Institute at www.recycle-steel.org, or visit www.earth911.org for local options. Here are additional links to recycling centers in Springfield.
