Before the spring comes along, it is a good idea to start cleaning up your home. This could also encompass cleaning out your home. Do you have old electronics you don’t use anymore? There are ways you can recycle these items and help the environment in the process. In addition to refreshing your home, look into renewing your insurance policy so your family will remain protected for years to come.

According to The Beaufort Gazette, if you have an old computer lying around the house, you can strip the hard drive down and the gold, silver, and copper insides can be redeemed for cash. Yet, recycling electronics isn't just about the money, "it's about doing the right thing for resources that are not renewable," says Beaufort County recycling coordinator Carol Murphy.

The county's Division of Solid Waste and Recycling will collect electronics for recycling at no cost to residents at two sites on Saturday. Since June, it has been deemed illegal to dispose of electronic materials in a landfill. The county also will accept personal documents for shredding, cellphones, monitors, televisions, calculators, and many other devices. About 200,000 pounds of electronics were collected at the last drive in the fall.

Those who miss Saturday's collection still have places to legally unload unwanted electronics. Stores like Best Buy and Radio Shack will buy items like laptops and recycle other electronics for free. Also, Low Country Metals in Hardeeville will pay residents and businesses for electronics, according to the company's director of business development, Michelle Smith.

At Kinghorn Insurance of Beaufort, we hope that residents follow these steps to recycle their old electronics. By keeping the environment healthy, this will allow your lifestyle to remain stable.
