• Technotrash Solutions. - Technotrash is any unwanted, broken, or obsolete parts from electronics and computers. These materials should not end up in the landfill - they can be recycled. Bring your disks, tapes, wires, keyboards, etc. to Meekins Library to recycle them. Larger items (TVs, VCRs, or computers, for example) can be recycled at a number of retail outlets and business/office supply stores. For more information, see GreenDisk or Springfield Materials Recycling Facilities.
