Computer Crusher Blog

Here's a local recycling resource list for Denton Residents who want to recycle everything from prescription meds to TV's.  If you would like to share a resource that is not listed please submit it to us here.

     One thing is for sure, being in the electronics recycling business you see a wide spectrum of materials to be processed.  A lot of people are surprised when they find out that we don't just recycle computers but a wide variety of products.  We routinely bring in everything from voting machines to toner cartridges.  A lot of customers end up with a lot of left over ink and toner in their store rooms for printers and copiers that they don't even own anymore.  We can recycle these as well as used ink and toner cartridges.

     For years we have been recycling voting machines after they are deemed outdated.  We also destroy voting results data that is left on the machines.  Since we dismantle computer equipment by hand at our facility, we deal with all types of metals and ABS plastic.  Many times while we are removing computers from a business we will also take old metal filing cabinets and metal chairs.  We have even been successful at times reselling the filing cabinets and chairs and thus skipping the recycling process.  Reuse is the greatest form of recycling.  We can recycle server cabinets and server rails as well because of the metals used to produce them.  I can remember at least one hospital where we removed and recycled hundreds of metal hospital beds.
