Out%20with%20the%20old.jpg

Why not get a head start on out with the old before the New Year begins? Perhaps someone in your orbit is wishing for a new laptop this holiday season? If so, gather all of those soon-to-be unwanted electronics and set them aside for Whole Foods in Mt. Washington.

On Saturday, Jan. 9 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., Esquire Environmental Services, which offers certified and safe personal computer recycling, will be stationed in the parking lot behind the Starbucks (next to the Whole Foods) to collect any of the following:

•Desktop computers
•Keyboards and mice
•Laptop computers
•Mainframe computer systems, CRTs, and monitors
•Modems and telephone boards
•Hard drives, floppy disks, and CD ROMs
•Phones, fax machines, and telecommunications hardware
•Printers
•Computer boards, CPUs, and memory chips
•Circuit boards
•Connecting wires and cables

Whole Foods in Mount Washington is located at 1330 Smith Avenue. Visit their website for more information and make this post-holiday season as green as it can be.
