Free e-waste pickup in NYC
Happy New Year to everyone!! Lets hope the coming year is better than the previous few years. At The 4th Bin, we’ve decided to start it off with some positive programs.
First is our “Cell Phones for Food” campaign. We have partnered with City Harvest, one of the premier non-profits in NYC, to assist with their mission. This is a first step in following our mandate of giving back to our local communities. For those not familiar with City Harvest, their mission is to “end hunger in communities throughout New York City”. They do this by collecting excess food from all segments of the food industry and redistributing it to nearly 600 community programs throughout the city. As a non-profit, they rely very heavily on contributions. The 4th Bin’s “Cell Phones for Food” campaign collects cell phones, generates value for the phone and donates a portion of the proceeds directly to City Harvest. We’re proud to not only help save the environment but also to help feed the hungry.
Second is our January Free E-waste Pickup campaign. We are currently accepting requests to pick up electronic waste from businesses and residents of New York City. We accept almost all types of e-waste. From mid-January until the end of Febuary, we will be driving through the city and picking up anything from anyone that has requested a pickup - for free. What’s better than someone coming to your door and picking up your stuff with no cost to you?
You can get info for either program by visiting our website - http://www.4thbin.com.
Have a happy new year!!
