Might There Be a New Home for Your Used Electronics?

We all have electronic devices of various kinds that we want to dispose of. Did you ever think that many of these can be updated and given free-of-charge to the handicapped? Did you ever think about the fact that electronic devices contain many hazardous substances that can leach into the ground water from landfills?

Long-time Richland Park resident, Chuck Fiedler collects used electronic devices and works through the Texas Center for the Physically Impaired to upgrade computers and send them to blind persons all over the country. Accepted materials are desktop and laptop computers, monitors, keyboards, mice, printers, etc.

Also accepted are literally any small electronic device: cell phones, blenders, vacuum cleaners, etc. Used inkjet cartridges also are requested.

If you itemize deductions on your annual tax filing, you might be interested in a tax receipt and Chuck can provide that for you.

You should know that anything that is not reusable is taken to an EPA-approved recycler. None of these materials will end up in landfills or in foreign hazardous disassembly houses. The materials sent for recycle are disassembled in Texas into their component parts and recycled into new materials.

Want a tax deduction and be assured that you are doing something beneficial for the environment? Call Chuck Fiedler at 972-690-6329. Chuck will pick up or you can deliver to him at your convenience.
