This website is a fantastic idea.
One, it is a service to help recycle electronics, keeping them out of the landfills (or piling up in your basement, drawers, etc.).
Two, it's free, even including the mailing label which they provide, free postage included.
Three, though it's best to do it oneself, they are very diligent to wipe all info from the electronics sent to them (computer hard drives, cell phone contacts, etc.).
Four, they recycle some of the refurbished electronics to schools, battered women's shelters, etc.
Five, they actually give some form of compensation to the the one sending in the electronic product for recycling.
On the downside, I found it impossible without actually going through the process of submitting an electronic I want to recycle through them to find out exactly what they give as compensation for ones using their service.
All in all, even without the plus of there being something in it for me, this is a much needed service. We all have computer parts, cell phones, etc. that are just sitting around as we move on to the next new system or gadget. I've seen electronic recycling locations before, but never with the free shipping nor with any compensation for the one donating the electronic equipment. Check it out!
