How to Recycle Computer Cords
- 1). Locate a recycling facility or local retailer such as Best Buy or Office Depot close to your home or business. Websites such as the Environmental Protection Agency's eCyling page (see Resources) will assist you in your search.
- 2). Choose the organization with which you intend to recycle based on convenience, speed of processing and whatever other criteria best suit your needs.
- 3). Gather and secure all the cords for recycling in accordance with your chosen recycling organization's instructions. For example, Office Depot asks that you use the recycling boxes it provides.
- 4). Arrange for a pickup, if the recycler offers that service.
- 5). Take your computer cords to your chosen recycling organization. Place the wires in the designated location.
