These type of e-waste recycling events really helps a lot to raise awareness about the growing e-waste issue. Many times I recycle mobile phones and took part in helping the environment.

Saturday seems to keep McHenry County Department business in making collections of electronic waste. A splendid move on behalf of county to keep environment safe from reckless handling of electronic appliances by residents. Another alternate way to recycle is cash for mobile at phone recycling centres.
