HP and Office Depot team up on recycling

Office Depot and Hewlett-Packard (HP) have developed the country’s first free, nationwide, in-store electronics recycling program in which customers can drop off any brand of unwanted electronics at any of Office Depot’s more than 850 retail locations, including the ones in Silverdale and Port Orchard.

The program runs from July 18 through Sept. 6, and offers consumer and business customers the most comprehensive, convenient and environmentally responsible electronics recycling service available. The offer is limited to one product solution, such as a PC, monitor, mouse and keyboard or one individual product, such as a PDA or cell phone, per customer per day.

Office Depot and HP will collect and recycle a broad range of information technology and digital entertainment products from any manufacturer, including desktops, notebooks, keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, handhelds, digital cameras, fax machines, desktop copiers, flat panel displays, monitors, TVs (27” or smaller), TV/VCR combos and cell phones. All products collected from Office Depot stores will be recycled at HP’s U.S. recycling facilities in Roseville, Calif. and near Nashville, Tenn.
