Recycling Program
Does it bother you to throw your old cell phone or empty printer cartridge in the trash? SWD LWML provides a service whereby you can improve your stewardship of the land and the wonderful resources that God has provided by participating in a recycling program!
How it works:
- Contact Linda Ault to request preprinted, postage prepaid mailing labels addressed to the recycling company, M.L.C. Enterprises.
- Pack the items 8-10 to a box, padded with bubble wrap or other packing material to ensure they reach their destination undamaged.
- Include a list of the items you’re sending (keep a copy for yourself).
- Drop the package off at the closest Federal Express drop box or retail location – no postage necessary!
Items accepted:
- Empty inkjet printer cartridges that have metal heads. ALL Epson and some Canon (BCI) cartridges are not accepted. (Place the cartridges in a plastic baggie to avoid making a mess of the leftover ink.)
- Cell phones
- Pagers (including cords)
- Laptop computers (including cords and accessories)
- PDA’s (Palm Pilots, Blackberrys) (including cords & accessories)
