Sony Partners With Recycle America For Free E-waste Recycling

by 08/17/07 No Comments

Sony will begin offering free recycling of Sony-branded electronics at 75 Waste Management Recycle America drop-off centers in the U.S. starting on September 15.

The number of participating centers is expected to increase to 150 within a year, and Sony and Recycle America are looking to develop enough drop-off locations in the future so there is a center within 20 miles of 95 percent of the U.S. population.

Customers who don’t live near a Recycle America drop-off center can also ship their electronics to a participating venue. For more information, visit the Recycle America website.
