Does anyone know where to recycle old computers in the detroit metro area? Thanks.

Have you ever wondered where old computers end up? China and India have been popular destinations, but in Ghana the piles of old computers are increasing every week even though the trade is illegal.

There is a place on 10 Mile and Ryan in Warren. Can't remember the name of it, but they take donations and repair computers for very little. They are all volunteers and they donate the fixed computers to those who are not well off or schools and such.

Computers are toxic waste. You cannot legally throw them in the regular trash. In some states you have to pay to get rid of them. If you can find someowhere that will take them as donations, you are lucky.
