THE POST SERVICE HELPS YOU GO GREEN

We all know that we should recycle our old gadgets and ink cartridges. But often, this is easier said than done. I'm frequently asked where to take these items so that they can be recycled.

The United States Postal Service is launching a recycling pilot program. No, the post office won't actually take your old gadgets! Rather, it has teamed up with a recycling company. The post office will place free envelopes for recycling small gadgets and ink cartridges in its lobbies. There is no charge to mail your old gear in for recycling!

This sounds like a great way to make recycling easier for many people. However, there is just one problem with the program. Right now, it is only available in 10 areas like Los Angeles, San Diego, Washington and Chicago.
