Haverford Township has partnered with PAR-Recycleworks, a local not-for-profit, which hires formerly incarcerated men and women to recycle used electronics. Their mission is two-fold: working to restore lives by providing job training and transitional paid employment in a supportive environment, while also protecting the planet and assuring that e-waste is re-used and re-purposed. PAR-Recycle Works collects all computer equipment, printers, scanners, tablets, cell phones, telephones, keyboards, speakers, gaming systems, fax machines, DVD players, VCRs, chargers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, air purifiers, microwaves, computer monitors, small appliances and even TVs (no console or large projection models)! PAR-Recycle Works is a first-level processing center for used electronics. Their workers deconstruct the items received and separate them into their major components. When necessary, they erase all data from hard drives before selling components to environmentally responsible downstream processors. |
