Anything With a Plug Recycling, established by Dennis Carter in the summer of 2012, is a dedicated electronics recycling service operating in North Carolina. The company emerged from a concern regarding the overwhelming amount of electronic waste ending up in landfills, which not only contributes to pollution but also poses risks due to the hazardous materials often found in e-waste. Dennis recognized the urgent need for a responsible and affordable solution for disposing of broken or unwanted electronics, leading him to create a service that caters to both residential and commercial customers.
The company's mission revolves around ensuring that nearly all e-waste is recycled locally in an environmentally sound manner—minimizing the volume that ends up in landfills. Anything With a Plug Recycling serves a diverse client base, including residential customers, businesses, community organizations, and governmental agencies across several counties like Alamance, Durham, and Wake. The service is designed to be uncomplicated and affordable, offering flat-rate pickups for any number of items, which include computers, appliances, cords, peripherals, and various electronic devices. However, they do not accept CRT monitors or projection-style televisions due to recycling limitations.
In addition to routine pickups, Anything With a Plug Recycling organizes special recycling events, encouraging community participation while helping local organizations raise funds. They prioritize the protection of sensitive data, providing physical disassembly of hard drives for customers concerned about data security.
The company emphasizes its local operations, refusing to export waste overseas, thereby contributing positively to the environment and community. With ongoing efforts to educate the public about the implications of e-waste and providing safe, convenient disposal methods, Anything With a Plug Recycling is committed to promoting a sustainable future.
