RAA Leverages MRF Infrastructure for Electronics Recycling

Five Wisconsin MRFs to handle electronics.

Recycle America Alliance LLC, a subsidiary of Houston-based Waste Management Inc., has initiated new electronics recycling collection services in Wisconsin, adding e-cycling services to five of its materials recovery facilities (MRFs).

The Milwaukee, Madison, Janesville, Paper Valley and Superior MRFs will serve as collection depots (E-Depots) for electronics sourced from public and commercial customers and will accept computers, computer monitors, televisions and computer peripherals. The MRFs will also accept consumer electronics, such as stereos, VCRs and cell phones.

RAA has similar operations in Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois.
