Recycle with NWF

National Wildlife Federation® (NWF) and Access Recycling have teamed up to offer a convenient recycling program to help reduce toxic electronic waste. Your participation helps support NWF's conservation and education programs.

We Recycle:

  1. Cell Phones: There are 130 million cell phones that become obsolete on an annual basis in the United States. All makes and models can be recycled, including accessories and batteries.

  2. Inkjet and Laser Toner Cartridges: 250,000 million pounds of toner waste ends up in U.S. landfills annually. Over 275 cartridge models from 23 major brands are reusable (*Note: we do not accept Epson brand inkjet cartridges.)

  3. Laptop Computers: 133,000 computer systems become obsolete every day in the U.S. The majority end up in landfills, along with the several pounds of lead and mercury that they contain. All makes and models are accepted. (Please include power cord and docking station if available.)

  4. PDAs (i.e., Palm® pilots): All makes and models of hand held assistants are accepted. (Please include stylus and docking station.)

  5. Apple iPods and MP3 Players: Send all working and non-working used iPod's and MP3 players, including accessories such as chargers, USB cables, batteries and extra casings.
