Recycle Your Old Electronics While Supporting WGBY Public Television

08:54AM / Saturday, November 15, 2008

Don’t know what to do with that bulky, old 19-inch computer monitor? That box of tax forms from 1978? Or that obsolete VCR? Don’t despair, just bring it to WGBY Saturday, December 6, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. for recycling and at the same time support public television.

The one day event will be held in the ProPark, Inc. parking lot across from the WGBY studios at 44 Hampden St., Springfield, MA.

WGBY has partnered with Green Monster recycling of Connecticut to help recycle a variety of electronic components. Green Monster is an environmentally friendly company that insures all materials are reused or responsibly recycled.

Computers, monitors, printers, along with televisions, small appliances, cell phones and inkjet and toner cartridges will be taken for a nominal fee ranging from $10 for televisions down to free for printer cartridges. All proceeds will go toward supporting WGBY programming and services.

In addition, documents will be shredded safely and securely on site by Proshred Security for a recycling fee of $5 per file box.

“This is a great opportunity for people to get rid of unwanted items in an environmentally friendly way and also support public television,” said Charley Rose. “I know I’ve got a dead computer and a few other things that have been sitting around and I need to deal with them. I’m sure lots of others people are in the same position.  This is the perfect opportunity to do that.”

WGBY (www.wgby.org), a community supported public broadcasting organization, connects the people of western New England to events, ideas and each other to fulfill their aspirations, enrich their lives and improve their communities. We do this through with PBS programming as well as locally produced series and specials. With our digital television channels, video on demand, podcasting and streaming video, WGBY is one of the region’s most accessible institutions, building a stronger community through learning and understanding.
