Don’t Throw That PC Away!

Shaz Computer, Tips

I’ve done some reading lately and came across to this interesting thingy.It might be a good tips that can help you in the future. What do you do with your electronic waste-old PCs, printers, cameras, and mobile phones? The right answer is to recycle of course! Here are some green options:

  • Back to the manufacturer. Check with your product manufacturer whether the company takes back their products. Some manufacturers are required by law to take back their goods if the user is done with, such as Apple,LG Electronics, Dell, Hewlett-Packard and Sony.
  • Time to sell. Before throwing away your MP3 player, camera or mobile phone that you’ve gotten bored with or has become outdated, why not sell it? Your junk may be valuable to someone else!Erase the device’s memory and sell it online on eBay or lelong.com, or even to IT shops that buy used devices.
  • Donate it. If you’re done with your high tech gizmo, donate it to the less fortunate. You can hand them over to charitable organisations that give recycled items to charities in need of it.

I prefer the 3 option. It’s easier and there will be somebody who always want those old junk (but still usable)…

1 and 3 more less similar. Once you return back to manufacturer, they’ll fix it litle bit and send to 3rd world
