Is there a place that accepts old gadgets for recycling?
« on: November 28, 2008, 01:18:26 am »
Ive been cleaning my room and I realized that I have a lot of old, broken and outdated electronic gadgets that need to be tossed away like old calculators, chargers and even a PDA. Nakakapanghinayang though if they go straight to the trash bin. Would anyone know a place that would take these things?

I've got a bunch of cellphone batteries, what to do with them?  And also some charger...
Thanks.

parang napanood ko sa unang hirit na pwedeng dalhin sa hmr phils yung mga old gadgets tapos they will recycle it/dispose properly. better ask them.

Call Goodwill. They always accept broken down stuff. The people they train use those to practice on.

Sis, meron dropbox sa SM Megamall (Building A entrance doon sa Megastrip side), just drop your old gadgets doon and sila na ang bahala.

SM has a waste market din. Not sure lang of their sked pero parang every week meron.

At one time, I also noticed that they have dispensers around the mall where you can put your recyclables:D

i think sa lahat ng Globe business centers or sa mga Ayala Malls may mga drop box where you can put your electronic stuff for disposal.

RE: Car batteries, we always bring this to our neighborhood battery supplier.  They buy this for around P10-15 (if I recall correctly).

Other electronic gadgets, you can sell to junk shops or electronic srepair shops.

sa mga mall there is a specially made trash-can for used battery, charger, phone, cellphone even head phones that you can dispose i've seen it sa glorietta, trinoma at some sm malls also not sure lang sa mga stores mismo ng cellphone pero i heard meron na din gumagawa nito
It's not enough that you accept me for what I am. You also have to accept me for what I'm not.
