Discarding
unwanted computers inappropriately can be expensive. The
EPA could fine your company as much as $5000/item (monitor,
CPU, etc.) and there are other penalties for throwing
items containing toxic materials in the trash. Computers
and other electronic equipment contain Lead, Aluminum,
Germanium, Gallium, Barium, Tantalum, Indium, Vanadium,
Terbium, Beryllium, Europium, Titanium, Ruthenium, Cobalt,
Palladium, Manganese, Silver, Antinomy, Bismuth, Chromium,
Cadmium, Selenium, Niobium, Yttrium, Rhodium, Platinum,
Mercury, Arsenic, Silica and other substances which can
have serious environmental consequences.
Do you have
cubicles or rooms stuffed with old computers that could
be more productively used for new employees? As an consultant
I have seen companies desperate for space with many cubicles
full of old computers, printers, monitors, copy machines
and other unwanted equipment. This equipment can be donated
to Chimorel Services Inc. We will find a home for everything
that has realistic useful life and will disassemble and
recycle the parts and material for everything else. You
eliminate the risk of fines. You protect the environment.
You regain valuable space. You get a donation to write
off on your taxes. You might even be paid cash for items
that have adequate value. If your equipment is old with
no value, you reduce a significant fine to a small disposal
fee.
