RECYCLE!! We all know that we aren't supposed to throw batteries in the trash, but what should we do with them? Many places, like Batteries + and Best Buy, will only take rechargeable batteries but Staples will recycle regular ones for free.
Control Alt Recycle in Cville will take computers, old hard drives, Garmin GPS, and things like copiers for free. For a fee, they will take your flat screen TVs.
Ridwell and Terracycle charge a fee but you can mail in wrappers and other plastics that are hard to recycle.
We are Caring for God's Creation in any way we can!
