Recycling Locations

Here are some ideas on what to do with your used equipment:

1. Announce the availability at the next SCUM meeting.

2. Check out the recycle locations below.

3. Get familiar with Freecycle, Craigslist and eBay.

4. Take your stuff to Allied Waste at 333 Shoreway Drive in San Carlos. It's free.

And remember, if you have a newer iMac or Mac Mini that you want to get rid of, our own Mac Lab might appreciate the donation. Contact your favorite SCUM officer.
