Dell Launches Free Recycling Program

Announced back in June, Dell has created the website to support their new free recycling program for any Dell-branded product. They'll also recycle your old PC for free, Dell or otherwise, with a Dell purchase; they will still recycle whatever you want to get rid of, though there's a bit of a fee involved. Dell has also partnered with the National Cristina Foundation, to take computers that are still in good working order and help disabled and economically disadvantaged children and adults receive the gift of technology. Recycling or reusing is as easy a clicking a few buttons on their website; after locating the magic numbers they need, you schedule a time and they come pick it up. Dell offers a similar recycling program in many places across the world, including Australia, Canada, Europe, Malaysia, New Zealand and Singapore. ::Dell via ::Gizmodo.
