I wuz thinking, there are about 60,000 people living my area and there is one little electronic waste disposal service at the library.
Where are people really dumping their unwanted phones and other electronic goods?
Phones, they usually keep in the junk drawer or a box at home.
Other electronic goods.....recycling bin or regular rubbish.
Most people don't care to be honest.
Hopefully not with discharged batteries... apparently some Samsung phone batteries bulge and expand after a while in a state of discharge.
