Comments from the NEW comments feature –

Staples is charging $10 per machine – I’ve got keyboards, printers, computers, etc. I’d also like to scrub the hard drive on my husband’s computer before I turn it over to strangers. Help!

How do I recycle an old mercury thermometer?

I just talked to the guy at this facility and they only take computer recycling, no other hazardous waste materials (we were able to go in and correct the system)

I am trying to find out what to do with everday batteries (AA, AAA, etc.) I have a lot of them because I didn’t want to throw them in the trash but I don’t know where to take them. Please help. I live in Springfield, Illinois.
