Get Paid to Recycle Electronics!



Costco and the US Postal Service have both recently launched programs to encourage consumer recycling of electronics. The US Postal Service is offering mailers in 1,500 post offices across the country and they will ship and recycle your electronics for free.


Costco is taking the process a step further and in addition to offering free shipping, they are offering credit for the value of whatever you recycle. They have an online calculator on their website that will evaluate how much you can expect to get for your goods.


If you're in Seattle, King County has another option for you. The Take it Back Network is a partnership between various local businesses that have agreed to accept electronics for recycling at various locations in the area. The catch? You have to pay them to accept items you want recycled.
