REMINDER: Attention Bay Area Makers! Is your house is filled with old, abandoned electronics? Do you have failed or unsatisfying projects in your garage? Maybe it's time for some spring cleaning. You recycle your unused, household electronics this Saturday, March 29 from 10 am to 4pm at ACCRC in Berkeley.
No fees are charged for this collection.

ACCRC (Alameda County Computer Resource Center)
1501 East Shore Highway, Berkeley, CA

ACCRC is a 14-year old award winning electronics recycler. Their primary focus is computers and the charitable placement of F/OSS computers in the hands of those who do not have access. A secondary focus is on finding a re-use for everything else that comes in and they get a lot of stuff. We'll be working with ACCRC to sort through things, looking for materials that are appropriate for Make Play Day. If you'd like to volunteer for Make Play Day, or through the sort-through this Sunday, let Dale know.
