Back in 2010, the EPA did a study about e-waste. This would be all those electronically charged gizmos, gadgets and office equipment that have been replaced. The agency found that in 2010, 649,000 tons of electronics were recycled. That represented just 27% of the 2.4 million tons of electronics that were classified as “end of life.” In other words, there was a lot more e-waste that wasn’t recycled that should be recycled. Part of the reason for this is that many folks hold onto the e-waste. From a space perspective, an old PC or home printer that can be shoved into a closet or up in the attic would not take up much space. However, when you add into that all the old televisions, laptops, cell phones and appliances that you’ve replaced then it’s clear you’ve accumulated a lot of clutter. You can’t merely throw that stuff out. Instead, it needs to be disposed of in a responsible way. That’s why you hire Junk King. They know how to handle e-waste recycling. They’ve been doing it for years!

Since its inception back in 2005, Junk King has always had an eco-friendly disposal policy. This means they are dedicated to recycling, repurposing and reusing. For proper e-waste recycling, Junk King has identified the facilities around Dayton that are set up to handle this type of processing. Typically, these centers have drop-off hours. But do you want to spend your day off driving your computer around town looking for the right facility? Let Junk King handle the job.

Along with e-waste recycling, Junk King can also donate those designated items that can be refurbished to a charity. Many of these organizations hire local residents and train them to fix everything from an old computer to reupholstering a sofa. As long is a piece of “junk” can stay out of a landfill, Junk King has accomplished its mission.

What can you turn over to Junk King? Pretty much any piece of rubbish can be picked up by the crew. By “picked up,” we mean right from the spot. You don’t have to move anything to make it easy for the Junk King crews. They are happy to climb up into the attic or go down in the basement to get at your junk. You can start with e-waste recycling and end with a home that is clutter free all thanks to Junk King.
