Office Depot and Hewlett-Packard yesterday launched the country’s first free, nationwide, in-store electronics recycling program.
Under the Office Depot-HP program, which runs through Sept. 6, customers can drop off any brand of unwanted electronics at any of Office Depot’s more than 850 U.S. stores. Office Depot will collect and recycle computer-related and electronic entertainment goods, including desktops, TVs, and cell phones. All products collected from Office Depot stores will be recycled at HP facilities in Roseville, Calif., and near Nashville, Tenn.
Sounds like a good opportunity to get rid of some cruft in the upstairs office …
