As an official member of the eWASTE Alliance Partner Network, MacSolutions Plus will be accepting old electronic devices such as VCRs, fax machines and printers for recycling.
MacSolutions Plus’ official drop-off locations include Eastern Hills Mall and West Seneca in New York. The company will be recycling these items without charging any fees.
In response to the New York State Electronic Equipment Recycling and Reuse Act coming into effect on April 1, 2011, electronic equipment covered within the service includes computers, televisions, small scale servers, monitors, keyboards and mice, fax machines, printers/scanners, cell phones, VCRs, DVRs, portable digital music players, DVD players, digital converter boxes, cable or satellite receivers, and electronic or video game consoles.
In a release, Garret Cleversley, owner and president of MacSolutions Plus, said, “Our customers are always looking for hassle-free ways to get things done – that’s why they buy Macs. This new service is just one more way we can help our customers.”
With immediate availability of the recycling service from MacSolutions Plus, consumers can drop off the equipment at any of the convenient location from Monday to Saturday, while the service will remain open for a half day on Sundays. In case businesses need some special premium services such as direct pickup, secure data destruction services and non-covered items, they can contact MacSolutions at 888-563-1340 or log on to the ewaste website.
