Recently, I had a strange conundrum where I had an old electric toothbrush and I didn't know what to do with it.

I knew that it had a big battery in it and I didn't want it to go in the trash can and, you know, end up catching on fire somewhere. So I started looking into e-waste and then realized that I actually have a lot of it. I haven't wanted to send them to a landfill but hadn't taken the time to figure out where to go.

Best Buy does, Staples does, Home Depot takes stuff like light bulbs, and even Goodwill will take a lot of e-waste. Just check to make sure that your local Goodwill is equipped to do it.

But by getting into the habit of recycling your e-waste and telling other people to do it so that it becomes just as common and automatic as recycling aluminum cans, it's going to make a big difference.
