8th Grade Trip Fundraiser
Electronic Recycling Campaign coming in January
Do you have electronic gadgets sitting in your home that you want to avoid ending up in a landfill? In January and February you can bring your working and non-working electronics to Bigelow during our Electronic Recycle campaign. Bigelow will earn $ on these devices and you can be assured these items will be swept clean of data and be “upcycled” – sold, repaired and/or used for parts. No item ends up in a landfill. Our goal is to collect 250 items to earn $ to support the spring 8th Grade trip to NYC.
We will focus on collecting the most valuable items (working items have more value than non-working, but both are accepted):
-laptop computers
-game consoles (Wii; Playstation 3; Xbox360)
-handheld devices (Nintendo; PSP; Game Boy)
-GPS
-Kindles
-digital cameras/camcorders/picture frames
-iPad/iTouch/Notebooks/Tablets
-all smart phones
-most Apple products
-DVDs (in original cases)
There are also items that cannot be accepted, such as:
-flip phones
-TVs
-Fax machines
-Desktop computers
-Computer monitors
-Printers
-Ink Cartridges
Details will be available the first week of January. Thank you for helping the 8th Graders and for participating in responsible electronics recycling.
