Just like with other materials, electronics can actually be recycled a few different ways. Not all of your electronics have to go straight to the nearest recycling center that accepts e-waste. There are other ways you can “recycle” your electronics before they end up in a recycling facility.


HOW TO RECYCLE ELECTRONICS THAT ARE STILL USABLEJust because an old electronic gadget is no longer useful to you, does not mean it is no longer useful at all. Most likely, there is someone out there who could put your old consumer electronic gadget to good use, and reusing that old electronic device is actually a way of “recycling” that old electronic device.


So, now that you know how to recycle electronics that are still operational, where do you find someone to either give or sell your old electronic devices to? There are actually a number of ways to accomplish this.


If you are looking to make a little bit of extra cash, you can either trade-in or sell your old electronics online.


HOW TO RECYCLE ELECTRONICS BY TRADING THEM IN OR SELLING THEM
