We went to Best Buy today to drop off a computer tower and monitor. They took the tower but wanted $25 to recycle the monitor. They said it was their new policy to charge for TV's and monitors.

Good to know about Best Buy. We have an old all-in-one computer to dispose of. We were considering giving it to the Computer Club if someone wants to strip it out for parts.

Best Buy will recycle any electrical item. Just drop it off there and they recycle it.
